About the artwork
DIFFUSION.MUSCLE transforms real-time strength training data through an automated pipeline that converts physical exertion into electric storm clouds.
Pipeline: Python (via claude code) to continuously pull workout data from Google Sheets, the system reads MET values (Metabolic Equivalent of Task - where 1 MET = sitting at rest) and translates exercise intensity into plasma ball visualizations that feed directly into a comfy ui workflow.
Low MET exercises (1.0-3.5) like planks generate gentle blue arcs triggering calm atmospheric renders, while peak intensity lifts (9.0+ METs) unleash chaotic white-hot plasma discharge that commands violent storm generation. As the metabolic energy depletes, both plasma arcs and storm systems gradually lose power and dissipate until the next exercise feeds fresh data into the system.
Geoffrey Lillemon constantly defines new aesthetics and visionary ideas, driving a strong, future-minded approach to his art. The Amsterdam-based artist has a profoundly personal approach to using CGI and media art, which translates into unexpected expressions and commentary on the human condition – human life, mortality and anything in between.
His collaborations with pop stars, commercial clients, museums, galleries, and theatres, with celebrated results, blur the line between entertainment, media appetites, and art. His work has been acquired by Stedelijk Museum and exhibited by Boijmans van Beuningen. It has been performed at the Museo Tamayo in Mexico City and shown at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. This background has given Geoffrey the unique position to bring digital art to the mega-stages of global music acts.
