Alghero will host an immersive, interactive, and ever-evolving experience: "Remote Decay" is a multimedia installation that focuses on the relationship between technology, art, and the environment, inviting the public to become an active participant in a digital ecosystem inspired by coral reefs. The work will be installed from Tuesday, April 28th to May 24th at Fertilia Airport and the Coral Museum in Alghero .

The project is curated by the “Luigi Canepa” Conservatory of Sassari, financed with PNRR funds as part of the MUSIC4D program and conceived and created by the Electronic Music School of the Sassari Conservatory .

“Remote Decay” presents itself as an open-ended work, capable of transforming in real time through viewer interaction. Projected onto a screen, images of digital coral reefs react to body movements, generating visual and sonic variations. Organic textures and electronic music thus merge in a dynamic, constantly changing environment, evolving in the moment and changing with those who pass through it.

The installation is designed to work remotely as well: if a visitor to the museum in the center of Alghero interacts with the screen, the effect of their action is also perceptible on the airport panels, and the same is true when the roles are reversed. The result is a digital ecosystem sensitive to human presence, in which the viewer is not simply an observer but an active participant in a system that adapts and transforms, in stark contrast to the reality of natural ecosystems, often compromised by human intervention.

Technically, the installation uses a body tracking system that detects the audience's movements in real time, without capturing biometric or personal data. The collected information, such as location, distance, and gestures, is processed using artificial intelligence algorithms to generate a constantly evolving virtual environment.
