Digital Culture & AudioVisual Challenges

For this artistic interdisciplinary project, Where the Water Flows, I aim to examine the complex ways in which the land shapes cultural identity, personal values, and collective history. This will be achieved through a multi-faceted approach that integrates traditional documentary and social practices, incorporating original photographs, archival materials, and soundscapes alongside emerging technologies such as AI-generated environments. Where the Water Flows unfolds as a multimedia installation, weaving together photography, audio, collected natural elements, and AI-generated landscapes bridging past and future. By blending traditional and emerging media, the project constructs a rich sensory experience, inviting audiences to immerse themselves in the layered narratives of land, memory, and identity. The research draws inspiration from Indigenous Knowledge Systems while primarily focusing on communities in Greece that have maintained deep-rooted relationships with their environments, whether through cultural traditions, spiritual practices, or agricultural livelihoods.
