273. Spiral Morse Sequence
A four-digit number encoded on an inward-to-outward spiral.
Sequenza a spirale dal centro verso l’esterno; il bronzo segna le unità e divide un numero dal successivo.
In Spiral Morse Sequence – 5961–5964, a progression of four digits is transcribed into image using the numeric Morse
alphabet.
The dots and dashes of each number become pictorial signs, arranged along a spiral that unfolds from the center outward.
Reading follows the trajectory of the spiral, while the bronze acts as a marker of the units and separates one number from the next.
The structure is constant and rigorous: regularity, spacing, and proportion define the visual harmony of the composition, while chromatic variations create a controlled vibration.
The grid is precise, with calibrated intervals and margins of air, yet the rhythm of the signs transforms the arithmetic sequence into visual
time.
The work combines system and energy — a writing that does not show numbers, yet makes them felt.
Further details on the compositional logic and the decoding scheme are available upon private request.
In Spiral Morse Sequence – 5961–5964 una progressione di quattro cifre viene trascritta in immagine usando l’alfabeto Morse
numerico.
I punti e le linee di ciascuna cifra diventano segni pittorici, ordinati su una spirale che procede dal centro verso
l’esterno.
La lettura segue la traiettoria della spirale, mentre il bronzo funge da marcatore delle unità e separa un numero dal successivo.
La struttura è costante e rigorosa: regolarità, respiro e misura determinano l’armonia visiva dell’insieme, mentre le variazioni cromatiche generano una vibrazione controllata.
La griglia è precisa, con spazi regolari e margini d’aria calibrati, ma il ritmo dei segni trasforma la sequenza aritmica in
tempo visivo.
L’opera unisce sistema ed energia: una scrittura che non mostra numeri, eppure li fa sentire.
Approfondimenti sulla logica compositiva e schema di decodifica sono disponibili esclusivamente su richiesta riservata.
