Cell-ion is an intriguing and somewhat unsettling machine, showcased at the Cité des Sciences et de l'Industrie in Paris. Entirely handcrafted, this piece is an assemblage of wood, illuminated globes, and intricate electronics. Each glass globe functions as a lightbulb that, when glowing, conveys information in binary form, making the invisible visible through light.
At the heart of Cell-ion lies a computer, tirelessly fulfilling the prayers and wishes of humanity. It operates continuously, symbolizing the endless cycle of desires and the interaction between humans and technology. Through its unique blend of art and science, Cell-ion invites viewers to explore the boundaries of faith, technology, and the role of machines in our ever-evolving world.
