生态系统II：探索
Ecosystems II: The Quest

2024年信号灯光节的主题延续了前三年的生态系统系列，聚焦于“探索”的主题。策展人Pavel Mrkus将本次灯光节定位为对当代社会、环境和技术困境的探索。22个艺术装置作品被分为四个主题章节：机械传教士、深度旅行者、进入宇宙和游戏。

The 2024 edition continued the three-year Ecosystems series, focusing on the theme of “Quest.” Curator Pavel Mrkus positioned the festival as an exploration of contemporary societal, environmental, and technological dilemmas. The installations were organized into four thematic chapters: Machinery Missionaries, Deep Travellers, Into the Universe, and Play.

建筑作为艺术的画布
Architecture as Art Canvas

艺术节的装置创新地利用了布拉格的历史和现代建筑地标，将公共空间转变为沉浸式环境和充满活力的艺术区。关键的装置包括：Filip Hodas的视频投影作品《永恒重现》，该作品将生命进化的分层叙事投射在大主教宫殿的立面上；以及Jiří Příhoda的作品《随想》，该作品研究了文艺复兴时期对透视和几何平衡的探索，将游客带入一个虚幻的空间，在这里光、影和形式发挥了戏剧性的相互作用。

The festival’s installations made innovative use of Prague’s historic and modern architectural landmarks, transforming public spaces into immersive environments, and vibrant art zones. Key installations included Filip Hodas’s video mapping Eternal Recurrence, which adorned the Archbishop’s Palace with a layered narrative of life’s evolution, and Jiří Příhoda’s Capriccio, which examined the Renaissance’s use of perspective and geometric balance, transporting visitors into an illusionary space where light, shadow, and form play out a dramatic interaction.

在市中心的市立图书馆，Desilence的作品《海洋的节奏》（The Rhythm of the Ocean）等装置将游客带入了深海世界中。伴随着格莱美提名音乐家Suzanne Ciani作曲的音景，这段视频作品深刻地提醒着人们地球上生命的脆弱平衡。

In the city center, installations like Desilence’s The Rhythm of the Ocean at the Municipal Library transported visitors into deep oceanic environments. Accompanied by a soundscape from Grammy-nominated musician Suzanne Ciani, the video mapping was a stark reminder of the fragile equilibrium that sustains life on Earth.

沉浸式体验
Immersive Experience

信号灯光节的高互动性和多感官互动提升了游客的体验，鼓励人们直接参与到艺术作品中。由UVA创作的《奇特景点》位于Kunstahalle Praha，该作品研究了混沌理论，通过动态装置 —— 钟摆，来驱动实时投影，模糊了有序和随机之间的界限。

Signal Festival’s interactive and multisensory nature elevated the visitor experience, encouraging direct engagement with the artworks. UVA’s Strange Attractions at Kunsthalle Praha examined chaos theory using a kinetic installation–a pendulum–to drive real-time projections, blurring the lines between order and randomness.

Bill Fontana于多米尼加女修道院的作品《寂静的回声》（Silent Echoes）将巴黎圣母院的钟声与达赫斯坦山脉（Dachstein）冰川的回声联系在一起。Petr Vacek与Adam Cigler作品《反射》（Reflection）则是一个动态装置，以移动的机器人镜子为特色，与周围的光线和声音同步，创造出动态的视觉模式，邀请观众沉浸到艺术品和周围的环境中。

Bill Fontana’s Silent Echoes, hosted in the Dominican Convent, linked the sounds of Notre Dame Cathedral bells with glacial echoes from the Dachstein massif. Petr Vacek and Adam Cigler’s Reflection, a kinetic installation featuring moving robotic mirrors, synchronized with surrounding light and sound, created dynamic visual patterns, inviting viewers to engage with the artwork and the surrounding environment.
