Shift-Save
sacral space in the digital era, 2012

In an era of media paradigm changes, "Shift-Save" explores the
 return of the spiritual in a digitized knowledge society.

Most views on net.cultural developments assume the character of
 religious beliefs. Like all ages and cultures, the generation of digital natives long for sacred spaces – a site where analogue and digital worlds can meet, 
a space of reconciliation and coexistence.

Passing through spaces that play with pseudo-shamanistic rituals, visitors are prepared for an immersive encounter in the central meditation room. The digital projection becomes part of the analog video sculpture.
 "Shift-Save" reflects on the religion of the digital and the longing for sacred spaces in an era of post-truth.
