Szász Tibor & Klárik Balázs / Klaars (HU) - Overcharge / Túlterhelés

Overcharge is the first collaboration between Klárik Balázs (blaze), motion designer and VJ, and Szász Tibor, visual creative programmer. Their work explores the intersection of generative systems, real-time image-making and light art: Szász develops the software background and responsive algorithms, while Klárik defines the projection structure and visual content. Overcharge is an interactive light installation exploring the concepts of charge and energy transfer, responding to the processes that once took place inside the thermal power plant. The work is built around opposing pyramid-like forms whose relationship is constantly shifting, while visitors can directly influence the system. Composed of projections and LED lights, the installation uses lines that evoke vibrations and transform, once disturbed from their state of rest, into wave-like moiré patterns. Up to two participants can affect the system at the same time, turning human presence into the force that disrupts equilibrium. The work is planned for Open Storage, a partially collapsed, open industrial structure. Within this damaged architecture, opposing layered pyramid forms become a shared surface for light, energy transfer and viewer intervention.
