This immersive 3D mapping takes you into the world of mathematics: a spidron is a complex geometric figure that was first discovered and described by the Hungarian designer Dániel Erdély. Erdély’s spidron consists of equilateral triangles, with two triangles each forming a hexagon, which in turn is connected to a hexagon. Erdély was guided in his studies by Ernő Rubik, the inventor of the Rubik’s cube. The installation “Spidron” by media artist László Zsolt Bordos shown at KLANGLICHT 2021 uses stereoscopic animations as well as sound and video projections that are mapped onto such a spidron. The abstract formations are expanded through the use of 3D techniques: the moving images are overlaid with a stereo projection that only becomes fully visible through the use of 3D glasses – in this case color-anaglyphic glasses. The glasses enhance the visual experience many times over, increasing its depth and impressiveness. The viewer’s perception is put to the test: What exactly is being observed here? How can we interpret what we see? Where does the projection begin and where does it end?

László Zsolt Bordos, also known as Bordos. Artworks, lives and works in Budapest. He started as a visual jockey in 2000, performing in the Hungarian underground party scene. He became a pioneer of the genre with his early 3D VJing, his giant projections on building facades as well as his outrageous video performances and 3D mapping projects. Since 2015, Bordos has focused on solo art projects, light installations and stage projections for theater and opera and participates in the most important light art festivals worldwide.
