The First Temple (2018) Arts numériques par Friedrich Ursprung

"Premier Temple" évoque une architecture spectrale, où la mémoire et l’oubli s’entrelacent. Les piliers noirs ne soutiennent rien d’autre que le vide, des vestiges d’une structure sacrée dissoute dans le temps. L’image oscille entre le sacré et l’artefact numérique, une ruine reconstruite par des algorithmes erratiques. Comme une fresque décomposée ou un vitrail fracturé, elle témoigne d’un temple qui n’a jamais existé ailleurs que dans la persistance rétinienne d’un rêve oublié.

One of my favorites: A fragmented temple or an abstracted, digitalized ruin. The verticality evokes grandeur, but the scattered, glitch-like textures disrupt the sense of stability, making it feel as though something sacred has been corrupted or is in the process of disintegration. Maybe I’m drawn to it because it sits at the intersection of structure and collapse, order and entropy. The symmetry teasing at coherence but never fully resolving.
The remaining fragments suggesting something monumental—perhaps a ruined digital fresco, or a corrupted archive of memories.

This evokes a sense of longing - for completion, for revelation, for something just beyond reach.
It operates like a mirage. The more you stare, the more it shifts, denying easy comprehension but never ceasing to intrigue me. Might be a digital relic, an algorithmic dream of something ancient, a ritual site that has outlived its worshippers and is now reinterpreted through the distortions of time, memory, and technology.
