Lost Iterations

Timebased and Interactive Media Arts, Bachelor’s programme

Ariathney Coyne, Hazem Wakaf

“Lost Iterations” is a visual experience, approaching abstraction and narration. A random reconfiguration of light, movement, cameras and humans leads to organic, hypnotic and abstract visuals. The artists playfully experiment with complementary concepts: movement and stillness, human and machine, and their protagonist–light and its shadow. Through thorough curation, they create an autonomous being, free to run and dream, as a story of stillness, life, death and rebirth glitches through.

Hazem Wakaf and Ariathney Coyne are two media artists based in Linz. Their varying backgrounds provide a wealth of knowledge and diverse interests. These include extensive experience in performative and generative art practices, the creative process of filmmaking, through storytelling, cinematography, experimentation with production technology, and post-production. Their collaboration is based upon improvisational and intuitive working methods to create unpredictable imagery.
