The cyborg ontology for humans is becoming clearer and clearer and expanding exponentially
from the seemingly "innocent" days of Web 01 in the early 1990s. Now almost every human on
the planet has their reality altered, enhanced, or impacted by digital technologies. As they
facilitate next level ecosystems of biology and consciousness and commerce. We see this
evolutionary trending in the advent and implementation of Web3, AI, and the Blockchain.This
image is a metaphor for our hybrid living, for the moment, along a spectrum from partially to
complete immersion in a virtual or meta-verse reality.
Biography
Victor Acevedo is considered a desktop computer art pioneer as he was an early adopter of personal
computer software to create fine art in the early 1980s. His hybrid imagery tends to combine figuration
with geometrical abstraction and sometimes it presents as pure abstraction. He has shown his work in
over 135 group and solo art exhibitions in the U.S. and InternationaAlly. In 2022 he published a 43-year
career survey book called, ACEVEDO in Context: Analog Media 1977-1987 Digital Media 1983 - 2020.
Some of Acevedos early art influences were M.C. Escher, Salvador Dali, Fritjof Capra and R. Buckminster
Fuller. A deep study of their work and ideas, led him to the genesis of his spaceframe/polyhedral
graphical metaphor. His figurative work can be described as a kind of geometric Surrealism. It has a
metaphysical bent, juxtaposing figuration with non-objective form. His digital work could also be
classified as 'Techspressionism'.
His work has been acquired by among others, the Anne and Michael Spalter Digital Art Collection (The
Violist, NYC 1983-85, and Sunburst Couple); The Victoria and Albert Museum, in London, as part of the
Patric Prince Digital Art Collection (Acevedos Tell Me the Truth, 1991); and the Museum der Stadt
Gladbeck and the Golden Plotter archives: Computer Kunst 1994 & 2006: (Includes Acevedos, NYC
1983-85; February 29, 1993; Kevin in the Field; Portrait of Ewa; Whats so different about Todays Inner
Child?
Since 2007 He has ventured into the time-based realm producing videos that reflect his previous still
imagery explorations. Considering the phenomenology of synesthesia and integrating real-time videomix
workflows into his audio-visual studio practice, Acevedo initially positioned himself inside the genre
called Visual Music. He later coined the term Electronic Visual Music (EVM) in 2013. This was to describe
his motion graphic work more accurately in the dig
ital domain.
