This question might be a recurring one for somebody who is used to live with electronic and digital machines, but the reality is that in our relationship with them the state of &#8216;black box&#8217; is predominant and this rises the idea of being alienated, consistently more separated from what we understand by nature and thus more dependent of this mysterious machines.<br \/>\nGiven these conceptual outline, the TLC project proposes the observation of a material that is profusely used in electronics: piezoelectric crystals in order to revisit a widely used and known phenomenon (piezoelectricity).<br \/>\nStarting from this simple observation action, a cross-relationship appeared between natural and artificial, between life and machine, between art and science; and the experience of re-proposing technology, not in a practical and efficient way as it supposed to be for human development purposes, but in a poetic and symbolic way where the archeology of matter leads to reflect our relationship with the domination of matter, and reveal the closeness from technologies with nature (or understand technology as a transformed natural matter where humans play an evolutionary role).<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;-<br \/>\n[SPA]\n<p>La vida de los cristales se inici\u00f3 con una pregunta simple y conocida: &#8220;\u00bfC\u00f3mo funciona esto?&#8221;. Esta pregunta puede ser recurrente para alguien que est\u00e1 acostumbrado a vivir con m\u00e1quinas electr\u00f3nicas y digitales, pero la realidad es que en nuestra relaci\u00f3n con ellos predomina el estado de &#8220;caja negra&#8221; y esto genera la idea de estar alienado, consistentemente m\u00e1s separado de lo que entendemos por naturaleza y, por lo tanto, m\u00e1s dependiente de estas m\u00e1quinas misteriosas.<br \/>\nDado este esquema conceptual, el proyecto TLC propone la observaci\u00f3n de un material que se usa profusamente en electr\u00f3nica: cristales piezoel\u00e9ctricos para volver a visitar un fen\u00f3meno conocido y ampliamente utilizado (piezoelectricidad).<br \/>\nA partir de esta simple acci\u00f3n de observaci\u00f3n, apareci\u00f3 una relaci\u00f3n cruzada entre lo natural y lo artificial, entre la vida y la m\u00e1quina, entre el arte y la ciencia; y la experiencia de volver a proponer la tecnolog\u00eda, no de una manera pr\u00e1ctica y eficiente como se supone que es para el desarrollo humano, sino de una manera po\u00e9tica y simb\u00f3lica donde la arqueolog\u00eda de la materia lleva a reflejar nuestra relaci\u00f3n con la dominaci\u00f3n de la materia, y revelar la cercan\u00eda de las tecnolog\u00edas con la naturaleza (o entender la tecnolog\u00eda como una materia natural transformada donde los humanos juegan un papel evolutivo).<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>Link to video:<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/240993756\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\"
