[ERR]rational is an audio-visual artwork that is completely generated through mathematics.

The term math tends to trigger negative memories for most, and that is due to how we are exposed to it. It is presented to us as a convoluted set of rules that we must follow to achieve an arbitrary answer, but in reality math is a rich and complex language. It is a way to explain the relationships that surround, and impact our lives.

In this piece, Michael uses the principles of signal processing to create 3D objects and tonal patterns. By using mathematics as an artistic medium it becomes clear that we do not need to separate the arts and sciences as we do, and should instead embrace the rich creative complexities of the field.
