ISaidIf is a work in the very tradition of Lia, the famous Viennese artist developing abstract interactive art from a decade now on the web and other digital digital supports. In recent years her coding visual skills have fruitfully joined the audio experiments of the Cronica label members, resulting in compelling live audiovisual sets and data tracks in the label CD productions. Isaidif is one of the most recent Lia productions and has been included in the "Art Machines Machine Art" exhibition at the Frankfurt's Schirn Kusthalle. There it was clearly embodying the computer generative culture attached to an ancient 'machine' concept, among artistic (semi) automatic creations, playing with their mechanisms or output. The Isaidif graphic elements are circles, trajectories, dots, and ensued crossing lines, with the usual ultra-minimal palette (red, white and black) able to optically create soft lights and shadows. Equipped with autonomous (truly generative) and reset modes, the piece uses simple audio loops that start similarly and then develop in infinite dissonant and rattling juxtapositions. Time is diluted, also thanks to a sober and instinctual interface that lacks support (no help button is admitted here) but invites the user/spectator to decipher and find out himself symbols and values meanings (note: mac.intel users should start browsers in rosetta mode).
