ÖK(^)B is the acronym of Operation Kata-tropical (Aural) Bloom, an interactive game combining an artwork, digital archive and a virtual exhibition. The gameplay experience is centred on the forgotten architecture of the historica St. Joseph’s Institution beginning in the year 26777, allowing players to navigate the site as an apparition reclaimed by natural forces. With elegiac tones that whispers forgotten stories via haunted architecturals, this meta-artwork engages with historical facts and traumas through possible worlds and persisting objects. Developed by formAxioms lab and featuring digital artworks by Juan Covelli and Hings Lim, the game is an immersive landscape that prototypes art by grafting it within entropic digital frameworks, storing traces of collective life, and allowing visitors to manipulate artworks and their environment.
