ACMI presents

Beings by Universal Everything

An ACMI curated world premiere, including four new works, Beings is Universal Everything’s largest international exhibition to date.

Curious characters born from code.

Projected larger than life, Universal Everything’s parade of fantastic beings hypnotically morphs between forms and textures, from kaleidoscopic fur to molten lava, water molecules, and more.

Once you’ve met the cast of colourful characters, you can jump, dance and play to bring them to life. The more you move, the more animated they become.

Created from game engines, VFX software and ever-evolving algorithms, massive digital installations appear among generative artworks that grow and change in real-time, responding differently to each interaction so that no two visits are the same.

 

Universal Everything

For over 20 years, UK based art and design collective Universal Everything has created vibrant experiences that mesmerise and enchant audiences.

Fascinated by creating ‘soulful technology’, they're inspired by nature, human figures and emotions. Their work explores movement, form and colour to create a world of friendly, hyperreal beings.

Beneath the high-end visual effects, the creative process begins with simple hand-drawn sketches. Displayed alongside the artworks for the first time, these drawings reveal the imagination and craft behind the innovation.

Long-time innovators, Universal Everything subvert cinematic CGI, physics simulations and real-time gaming graphics to create super-sized, life affirming artworks and experiences.
