As part of the CAFe Budapest Contemporary Arts Festival, the exhibition Hidden Patterns aims to present the last 25 years of research based on the so-called Barabási networks, mainly related to the activity of physicist and network researcher Albert-László Barabási. By following the development of network visualisation – presenting the main projects of the Barabási research lab – the viewer can finally gain insight into the application of this comprehensive method in art. Using state-of-the-art technology (data sculptures, MI, AR, VR, drawing robot), network diagrams and structures vividly describe the hidden connections and relationships that underlie the studied phenomena.
Plans for the exhibition include the presentation of ongoing research processes and analyses such as the display of the Global Art Network, which depicts the relationships between artists and institutions. Through the use of virtual and real data sculptures, as well as tools based on augmented reality, images projected into space offer new possibilities for visualisation for researchers and those interested.
