V&A : Decode






Digitally growing plants and a mechanical eye that mirrors the blink of a visitor's gaze are among the digital works that feature in Decode: Digital Design Sensations. The exhibition shows the latest developments in digital and interactive design, from small screen based graphics to large-scale installations. Curated in collaboration with leading digital arts organisation onedotzero, there is work by established international artists and designers including Daniel Brown, Golan Levin and Daniel Rozin as well as emerging designers such as Troika and Simon Heijdens.

The exhibition is centred in the Porter Gallery with a series of interventions throughout the Museum and garden as well as a number of specially commissioned one-off performances. For the first time, the V&A also commisioned a digital work for its website and this provided remote access to some of the works on display.

I found this exhibition to be the best I have ever seen with every piece being amazing. Using computer generated code to create artwork is extraordinary. It was worthwhile as I can take inspiration and have more of an understanding of this type of work which can help me with my ideas for my Final Major Project which links reality with virtual reality.
