HOLO-MOVEMENT
Holomovement is a multimedia sound, video, and object installation that combines light projections, magnetic motion, and electrical phenomena to transform signal oscillations into actual measurements of its invented sound patterns. In the earlier proofs I created, I was able to display the indexing of refracted light, representing how widely photon emission exists. Over the course of the past year, I was then able to establish two different models of this specific work, which allowed me to go beyond single conformity. The second model includes a sound project titled, Magnetic Induction, which combines a single-phase induction motor-assisted magnetic pendulum, illustrating how transitions of signals between one state and another in a wide range of physical systems.

Eric Acuña is from San Antonio, TX, now living and working out of San Marcos, TX. He received a BFA in Expanded Media from Texas State University, where his approach to art-making pushes beyond the boundaries of genres and media towards the pursuit of creativity.
What began as to how and why synchronicities occur in the memory evolved into a study of the perceptual depth of motion. His investigations of perception span across video, performance, object, and sound to examine space, light, and movement as a resource for artistic practice. His ongoing research with new technologies and data models develops new ways we "look" and "feel" energy transformations.
Acuña's focus is on the optical transformation of time, memory, and energy through themes about presentness, natural forces, and universal patterns. He has exhibited and performed at institutions, public spaces, and performance theaters. Highlights include The Museum of Human Achievement, FLEX Gallery at Texas State University, R-Space, and the Patti Strickel Harrison Theatre.
Practicing interdisciplinarity is a fundamental goal of his research and reflection. His dedication to complex topics such as the origin of the universe and human immortality requires a combination of competencies that mobilize different theories across disciplines. He inspires his peers to cross and overcome disciplinary boundaries, leaning on integrating philosophical work with experimental technologies and theoretical approaches in developmental art, dance, and installation as mediums and tools. He has given many independent workshops, including an artist talk at Texas State University.
