The New Genius Temple of the Great Atomic Bombreflector
13th Seoul Mediacity Biennale, SeMA (Seoul Museum of Art), Seoul, KR, 2025
The New Genius Temple of The Great Atomic Bombreflector is a discrete device combining a physical environment with a performative process.
Its hardware component takes the form of an immersive installation constructed from 5,000 disposable aluminum containers, interwoven with streams of light and sound. At its center operates a core—a portal known as the Sacred Exposition, created by Guide-Performer Alexandra Morozova using the traditional Kazakh embroidery technique biz keste.
The performative component unfolds through each visitor’s passage within the Temple. Entering the space, participants connect to their Genions, activate them, and channel them through the portal into a shared flow.
The project constitutes a phase within ORTA’s planetary program: the development of a revolutionary device capable of transforming the destructive energy of Atomic Inhumanity into the Genius Forces of global uplift—The Great Atomic Bombreflector.
This flow extends along the Spectacular Channel formed through the collective Seoul New Genius Experience—from the Universal Core of Seoul to the Core of the Phenomenon of War within the Universal Composition—with the aim of irradiating and reducing it.
Commissioned by the 13th Seoul Mediacity Biennale.
