The bugs move fast dodging between the horses. When a bug nears one of the horses, the sound emitted from the horse’s backpack is amplified so visitors can hear it clearly. When a clear signal is broadcast, gallery visitors hear various people talking about real experiences fighting both biological and technological viruses.
The overall thematic experience of the installation breaks down to a struggle for control—the conqueror and the conquered. The installation approaches the dual nature of our existence on a metaphorical versus literal plane; biological versus technological; healthy versus compromised.

Infrasense has exhibited at Interaccess at the Electronic Media Art Centre in Toronto, Canada; Folly Gallery at the Media Art Center in Lancaster, UK; and in Kunstencentrum Vodruit in Ghent, Belgium. At the end of the tour, the artists are creating an exhibition catalog documenting all of the installations at each venue and featuring essays by Roberta Buiani from Canada and Italy, and DX Raiden from the United Kingdom.
The exhibition at Otis College of Art and Design is funded in part by The David Bermant Foundation: Color, Light, Motion. The project is funded in part by the Arts Council England, Canadian High Commission London, Hexagram: Institute Research/Creation in Media Arts and Technologies, OPEQ: Ordinateurs pour les écoles du Québec, UQÁM: Université de Québec á Montréal, and Conseil des arts et lettres de Québec.
