In 2020, a’strict, the art division of the Korean digital design group d’strict, created this amazing and skin tingly immersive art installation, Starry Beach.

First shown in Kukje Gallery, Korea, the digital artists of d’strict/a’strict explore the intersection of humans and technology, especially in light of the transformation of digital technologies during the pandemic. Starry Beach is a surreal landscape created in a black box space, engulfing the viewer in a synesthetic experience of encountering massive waves on a beach under a starlit night. The inspiration was “the complexity of nature, in particular the diverse visual and sonic characteristics of water.”

It’s simply hypnotic and awesome.
