Shown as a video installation, Algorithmic Swarm Study / I (2019), features over half a million objects moving together in perfect harmony to simulate distributed, embodied intelligence. On a frame-by frame basis, these digital Swarm Study iterations examine the complex patterns of movement inherent to the swarming organism. Each ‘flock’ is a unique, generative visualisation that has been individually bred at RANDOM INTERNATIONAL’s studio. These works investigate the expressive power of collective movement, and the instinctual reactions it can provoke in the visual system. Through the complex behaviour of simple forms, Algorithmic Swarm Study / I simulates a sense of agency and life.For over a decade RANDOM INTERNATIONAL has been exploring this field, through a series of sculptures ranging from architectural installations to more immediate studies. Now RANDOM INTERNATIONAL is directing this body of work into a new focus, experimenting with flocking behaviour at its purest algorithmic form.

Exhibited as part of the Out of Control solo show at Museum of Contemporary Art Busan, 2019.
