Axion Seed

About

Axion Seed is a participatory light sculpture exploring the dawning of self awareness. At its center, a mirrored rotating cylinder sits within a pentagonal enclosure, sending discrete beams of light outward to mirrored surfaces that return them inward, folding back toward their source. As participants gently turn the cylinder, the light paths shift and recombine into evolving lattices that respond directly to human touch. The installation renders a visible feedback loop in which action produces reflection and reflection produces awareness, imagining a being that first radiates freely into space without self knowledge, and only upon the return of its own light begins to perceive itself as a source.
