Multimedia artist, composer, and sound designer Jesse Woolston has a new multimedia installation, The Dynamics of Flow—part of an LED monolith exhibit debuting later this week at Art Basel Miami Beach. Bonus: it’s also an NFT.
My second #NFT, released on the 28th, will be part of an LED monolith installation built for the week of Art Basel.
Throughout my life, I've had the same dream, being confronted with a blackhole and falling inward. This installation and NFT communicates my experience. 🖤 pic.twitter.com/Kw93btpXhq

Another piece also incorporates 3D physics simulations of fluid flows, this time inspired by Vincent van Gogh’s most famous painting, Starry Night.
#vangoghinspires @jessewoolston : 'Inspired by how Van Gogh understood & depicted turbulence in The Starry Night, the piece articulates what he imagined through a physics simulation. This exercise also re-defines how we experience this natural law of turbulent flow through art.' pic.twitter.com/LpcPmQixzz

One of his installations explores color theory via a 3D fluid dynamics visualization of Monet’s Seascape.
Color Theory continues with a visualization of Monet's Seascapes. I see nature as art in of itself and to create a new lens that re-composes these forces into a piece embedded in architecture, allows room to understand the power & beauty of the natural world and how we compare.🖤 pic.twitter.com/rEdlB0ttzd
