Ronen Tanchum Creates Interactive Generative Art Installation at Davos Forum

Artist Ronen Tanchum, who specializes in generative systems and immersive environments, recently presented his work 'Human Atmospheres' at the World Economic Forum in Davos. The installation functions as a responsive weather system that uses live data from Davos to influence its visual behavior, with human presence causing changes in density, motion, and light. Tanchum, who has a background in film visual effects spanning over ten years, transitioned to interactive art to create real-time responsive imagery. He founded Phenomena Labs, a creative studio that produces large-scale installations and digital commissions across physical and virtual spaces. His artistic practice employs robotics, artificial intelligence, sensors, and real-time algorithms to construct evolving perceptual environments. Tanchum describes his approach as designing systems rather than fixed images, with artworks that behave like living processes. He aims to foster empathy and critical reflection through art that reveals interactions between human identity and artificial intelligence. The artist hopes viewers experience meaningful connections between humans and machines that extend beyond the installation.
