On the occasion of Art Basel’s show in Miami Beach, BMW i presents an off-site activation together with Superblue: Rafael Lozano-Hemmer’s immersive art installation “Pulse Topology”.

The exhibition will be augmented by an interactive experience presented by BMW inside the all-new fully-electric BMW i7 from November 28 – December 4, 2022 during Art Basel in Miami Beach.

“Pulse Topology” is composed of 3.000 lightbulbs suspended at different heights, creating a series of crests and valleys – an intimate landscape that visitors are invited to traverse. Each lightbulb glimmers to the pulse of a previous participant. Custom-made pulse sensors record visitors’ new heartbeats; when a participant interacts with the installation, their pulse is added to the canopy of recordings above them, replacing the oldest recording. Forming a platform for self-representation, in “Pulse Topology” individual heartbeats come together to create an immersive chorus of light and sound. Translating an interior force to an exterior form, Lozano-Hemmer makes tangible the otherwise invisible register of the heartbeat, which glows and then fades in the spirit of a memento mori.
