Recalibration 00:00:00:00 is an installation that explores the relation between embodies presence, perception, and technological systems. Subtle shifts in light and shadow are detected by a feedback loop of light sensors. Some of these shifts are introduced by the viewer’s own movements, some are generated autonomously by the machines. These disruptions are translated to audio in real time, giving form to a continuous dialogue between body, environment and system.

The title’s timecode, “00:00:00:00,” marks a symbolic threshold—a point of perceptual reset where the viewer enters what the artist describes as a state of Mu-a-ji-gyeong, a Korean term for immersive presence beyond self-awareness. Influenced by the Buddhist notion of ksana (찰나), or an indivisible moment of change, the work highlights the fragility of attention and the ongoing nature of perceptual reconstruction.

By proposing conditions rather than dictating paths, the installation invites each visitor to experience the space as a site of sensing, interference, and interdependency.
