Water Beings

Digital simulation of life in a petri dish

Director & Media Artist: Ruipeng Wang
Supervisor: Liam Young, Alexey Marfin

This body of work establishes a complex, open dynamic system that investigates the convergence of organic, artificial, and physical realms through the interplay of Water, Ripples, and Beings. Analyzed through the lenses of simulation, interaction, and intelligence, the work positions water as the foundational environment, beings as the agents of emergence, and ripples as the essential medium of exchange. By synthesizing interactive systems, responsive materials, and AI-driven installations, the project manifests a world where computational logic and physical fluidity intersect, offering a visceral exploration of how intelligence emerges from and resonates within its environment.
