Genius: Mozart Composing

Enter the mind of a composer. Light, motion, and music intertwine in a visual symphony representing the synaptic sparks of Mozart’s imagination. Each flicker of light mirrors inspiration in motion, turning composition into a living, luminous experience.

The Magic Flute: Mozart Forever

The finale, designed by new-media artist Refik Anadol, transforms Mozart’s music into moving AI-generated art. Using data from his scores and letters, the installation creates a mesmerizing digital landscape, a vision of Mozart’s creativity that transcends centuries.
