"Digital Buddha," by Jin Hi Kim, Benton-C Bainbridge and Joel Cadman, begins with a contemplative hypnotic video Mandala and the ancient 4th century Korean komungo that is grounded in Buddhist meditation. The multimedia collaboration gradually moves into a live video mix with extraordinary juxtapositions, fast cut swirling images of a deconstructed electric komungo and Kim's hands that become a reconfigured live performance through contemporary digital processes.
