1/x is a sound and light art-science installation based on the singularity character of the 1/x function. A system of weighted reciprocal functions generates light flashes and sonic events, while establishes a second singularity point that reverses the system's causality time space. Around the singular points of those functions, an intensive experience is created and the visitor immerse himself into a dramatic environment developed through micro and macro time scales of sound and light.

The project was financially supported partly by the European Art-Science-Technology Network for Digital Creativity (EASTN-DC), a network co-funded by the Creative Europe program of the European Union.
