When artists successfully translate information into beautiful artwork, it creates a powerful, unique and emotional connection with it. Dan Hoopert's [@danhprt ] mesmeric work creates exactly this reaction. Through his practice, Dan aims to create a feeling of phenomena through abstract image and sound, blurring the lines between physical and digital. We spoke to Dan about his innovative artwork: "A lot of what I do revolves around communicating in an abstract way. I want it to form a feeling or the start of an idea. I like the connection aspect of being able to place a thought or feeling in someone’s head through a reaction to the work without the need for any other form of communication." Work: A Conversation Between Trees 🔈on.

By @danhprt | A Conversation Between Trees 🪾🍃 “The wood wide web has been mapped, traced, monitored, and coaxed to reveal the beautiful structures and finely adapted languages of the forest network. We have learned that mother trees recognize and talk with their kin, shaping future generations. In addition, injured tress pass their legacies on to their neighbors, affecting gene regulation, defense chemistry, and resilience in the forest community. These discoveries have transformed our understanding of trees from competitive crusaders of the self to members of a connected, relating, communicating system. ― Peter Wohlleben A Conversation Between Trees is part of an ongoing series of artworks exploring the relationship between image and sound. In a journey through various 3DGS scans recorded in Epping Forest the artwork intends to give an abstract visualisation of the mycorrhizal network of communication present within forest ecosystems. Graphic shapes driven by data pulled from the scans respond to time, temperature, light and environmental change. MIDI data and control values are taken from the same data points to drive various synthesisers and sound engines to create a world of light and sound driven by the forest itself. Huge thankyou to @_c_b_n_k_s_ for helping push the sound design on this ✨ A Coversation Between Trees will be on display at @artotellondonhoxton from Thursday April 9th until the 30th 1-3 Rivington Street London EC2A 3DT @artotellondonhoxton @slice.of.alicelife @_bkyle @twentytwohalo | #twentytwohalo #installationart #mediaart #visualart #lightart

Audio Synthesis: Through The Forest now on display at @foil.gallery ✨🪾 “IN:SIGHT, our immersive room at Foil Gallery, designed for slowing down, reconnecting, and engaging with visual art in an intimate, sensory space. Now showing: Audio Synthesis: Through the Forest by London-based artist Dan Hoopert, a unique audiovisual work where 3D scans of a forest generate evolving sound and light in real time. On view until May 15. Come experience it over the next two weeks.”

Work created alongside @quayola for his latest artwork, ‘Arborescent’ on display at @casabatllo February 1-2 🌿✨🙏

Audio Synthesis: Through the Forest, installation views 🛠️🌀 “Audio Synthesis: Through the Forest is part of an ongoing collection of audiovisual experiments exploring the relationship between motion and sound. ​​​​​​​ A single beam of light revolves around a 360° LiDAR scan of a forest. As each point is scanned midi information and note values are generated and sent to various synthesisers and samplers creating an endless generative soundtrack unique to the forest itself. Graphic shapes are emitted from various data points throughout resulting in an abstract visual language for the sounds being created.”
