Origin, particle field
9,000 points on a golden-angle Fibonacci sphere settle into the name, then climb the walls of a brick vault. Press P for a kick. The real one listens to a DJ.
"I make invisible things perceptible, with sound, light and code." φ = 1.618033 // the grey the eye sees in total darkness
Enter the dark.
Eight studies in four acts: signals we cannot hear, rooms that listen, images that never existed, and matter that holds light.
The Signal
Solar plasma and bass frequencies, turned into sound and particles in real time.
Active fieldThe Room
Projection fitted to vaulted ceilings, screens and industrial ducts, played live against the music.
Active fieldThe Image
Generative and diffusion-based films about the limits and the future of the planet.
ArchiveMatter & Production
A tesseract in glass and LED, and large-scale new-media productions managed for Ouchhh.
In progressA visual language for things we cannot see.
TouchDesigner
POP particle systems, custom GLSL TOPs, FFT audio analysis with auto-leveling bass, mid, high and energy bands. Networks built programmatically in Python.
POPs · GLSL · Script CHOP · MIDI
Sonification
Twenty years of SOHO solar recordings (ESA/NASA) and planetary datasets mapped to pitch, loop and eruption, played from an AKAI MPK mini.
SOHO · mpv IPC · MIDI player
Live coding
Sound and pattern written while it plays: Sonic Pi and Strudel for audio, Three.js and GSAP for the browser, shaders by hand.

Diffusion
Stable Diffusion pipelines for moving image, cut in Premiere Pro. Photographed on Sony A7 III.

Field notes on the artist.
"My work starts with things we cannot see: solar waves recorded over twenty years, the grey the eye sees in total darkness, the energy of a room full of people. I translate them into sound and light, so they can be heard, seen and felt in a shared space."
Ilkan Sücüllü is a Vienna-based audiovisual artist and creative technologist working where data becomes sensation. He builds real-time media pipelines in TouchDesigner that turn signals we were not built to perceive, solar plasma, raw sound, brainwaves, into something a body can enter.
His installation Su(o)nificated, which translates NASA and ESA planetary data into sound and image, was shown in May 2026 in [FUTURE] TERRITORIES at Das LOT, Vienna, co-curated with NODE Media Lab. On 7 November 2026 he premieres Eigengrau, an audio-reactive particle installation, at A Dionysian Night, Wiener Bacchanale. His live visuals run at Vienna venues including Kramladen and Soundhauffn.
Since 2014 he has worked as project manager for the new media art studio Ouchhh, including the EEG Cognitive Painting at TED AI Vienna 2024. He founded the Vienna studio Arion Creative in 2016 and built the DJ and VJ Academy at Funkhaus Wien. Trained as a linguist and shaped by a life across Turkey, the Netherlands and Austria, he is interested in translation in its widest sense: between languages, between dimensions, between data and the body that receives it.

Ilkan Sücüllü is a Vienna-based audiovisual artist and creative technologist. He turns data, sound and dark rooms into real-time experiences built in TouchDesigner: solar sonifications, audio-reactive particle installations and live visuals for clubs and festivals. His installation Su(o)nificated was shown at Das LOT, Vienna (2026); Eigengrau premieres at Wiener Bacchanale in November 2026. Since 2014 he has managed productions for the new media studio Ouchhh, including TED AI Vienna 2024.
