Inspiration came when Senior Artist Alex Riczko read an article about mycelium found on asteroids, and how there is a chance mushrooms effectively came from space. That inspired the visual of bioluminescent mycelium, producing energy so dense and powerful that it has the ability to form portals to other dimensions.

A sphere is a unitary entity, not easily integrated into a collective body. "Oracles Oracle" is then an exploration of the solitary nature of a sphere, even in a crowded space. Among the chaos of spheres raining down into the Kittredge Building, each object remains itself, continually jostling for position in the crush of objects. The spheres do not become a unit but a crowd, packed together, waiting for the time they can regain their freedom of movement. Just as the Kittredge Building fills entirely with spheres, the floor drops out from beneath the spheres, dispersing them like seeds into the darkness. 

"Working Drawing" examines the medium of drawing as the primary document by which architects communicate construction information. But what happens if an architect begins to produce different kinds of drawings to communicate more than just the organizational rationales of construction? Where does beauty live in the architect's drawing, and how is it communicated before the building is built? Looking at line drawings, impressionist paintings and mosaic collages, "Working Drawing" imagines which personas that Denver's Kittredge Building could adopt relative to different possible forms of architectural practice.

Miller's Dream celebrates the annual migration of the Miller moth from the Colorado plains to the alpine meadows of the Rocky Mountains. The animation is created by programming intelligent behaviors for each moth to move through turbulence, flocking, and other organizing principles.Some people might consider these creatures annoying, but I appreciate their lifecycle and endurance. Officially, they are the adult stage of the army cutworm, which spends the winter buried in the plains. When the weather warms up, they emerge and flock to the mountains, traveling hundreds of miles to enjoy the cooler weather. As moths, they are harmless to us but are an important source of food for birds and even grizzly bears!

We are juggling concepts of solitude, loneliness, sadness, beauty, stillness, psychology, and severity in the everyday. We embody a meditation on the internal and external forces of daily existential living.

Incorporating water in my art has been a constant; with this piece I've embraced the opportunity to explore fluid as a subject on a grand and surreal scale. This piece celebrates my love of color and, as a teacher for over a decade, showcases my passion for educating others about the true primary colors of pigment: magenta, cyan, and yellow.

Reaching towards infinity, mirror-based toys such as kaleidoscopes simultaneously expand our perceptions and elicit a sense of wonder. Using a combination of scanned, fresh, pressed, collaged and photographed flowers, Roscina uses reflective tools to deconstruct floral arrangements and reassemble them into new moving image forms.

"Convolutions" is a real-time algorithmic animation system that was built specifically to spill across the architecture of the historic Kittredge Building. Built with Cacheflowe's personal creative coding framework called "Haxademic", the software runs continuously, displaying new combinations of patterns and effects that will never repeat the same image. The title ("Convolutions") refers to the low-level graphical processing steps that encourage the organic ornamentations to dance around the surface of the building.

SPARK is an after-dark light and projection program hosted throughout downtown. Using the latest in projection mapping technology and equipment, the Denver Theatre District and Downtown Denver Business Improvement District have found a way to fill temporarily empty spaces with light and magic. Artwork at this location created by Joel Rekiel, Denver Projection Mapping. Windows graciously provided by Independence Plaza.

"Micromonumental Mapping: Essence of Creation" is a projection mapping artwork, created by Limelight, featuring a 3D-printed, 1/40-scale model of the Opéra de Lille in France. Viewable through the window as part of the SPARK program, you can see it from Sunset until 2:00 AM daily, located near 16th St and Curtis Street on the ground floor level of the 16th Street Center Parking Garage.

Leister’s "Somnambulists" move through moments of restlessness, sleeplessness and anxiety, a reflection of our collective inability to find sleep in a chaotic world. Their larger-than-life bodies cycle through moments of agitation and surrender, inside shades of blue, bathing Denver in a drowsy fog. Featuring Composer & vocalist Kathryn Shuman, Choreographer: Samantha Mohr, and Dancers: Samantha Mohr Joan Fricke & Shauna Davis.

"Color Madness" is an ongoing series from Raul Gonzo that began in 2015.

A digital sculpture probing structural trauma, emotional processing, and the yearning for change.

Inspired by the title of a poem by Mahmoud Darwish, what power does man have over the architecture that surrounds him? Can the lightness of his movements be transmitted to the particles of the physical elements? Project adapted from a larger project created on an initiative of the French German cultural center in Ramallah.

"Best Friends" is part of LoVid's generative blockchain video project, "heartsleeves". Mixing code-based generative patterns with participatory portraits, "heartsleeves" embraces the distributed nature of art on the blockchain, converting the community into co-creators who mint their own portraits within LoVid's environment. For Night Lights Denver, LoVid draws from "heartsleeves" videos of friends' best friends. Courtesy of LoVid & Tonic.xyz.
