Скачать или смотреть Jakob Kolb - You Get What You Love

The multimedia installation “You Get What You Love” by Jakob Kolb merges various artistic languages into an immersive system. At its core lies a steel structure—a “memory container”—from whose headpiece LED strips cascade like neural synapses, visualizing the flow of information. While the structure has a techno-futuristic feel, nature is already reclaiming the system: plants overgrow the metal, and insects inhabit the hollow spaces. The machine is transforming into a living organism.

Through an integrated chaise longue, viewers are invited to become part of the work. The auditory dimension is accessed via headphones: a spoken mantra addressing modern pressure to perform and the compulsion for constant production leads into the eponymous, previously unreleased song. The furniture itself, featuring the sketch of the single cover, closes the loop between sculpture, sound, and personal narration.
