Neural Explosion – three-dimensional assemblage with multicolored wires bursting outward from a dark panel, mounted on salvaged wood handles in a radial, high-energy pattern.
Side view emphasizing depth of construction and dynamic curvature of outward-splayed wires.
Angled close-up highlighting wire bundling and the dense layering emerging from the central component.
Overhead view showing convergence point of colored wires and exposed terminal connections.
Detail of left side revealing texture of wooden support and wire junctions.
Zoomed-in shot showing circuit board elements and crimped terminals in the core section.
Close-up of twisted wire ends and mounting structure, emphasizing the sculptural tension of the piece.

Neural Explosion reimagines a discarded terminal block as a blooming conduit of memory and circuitry. Color-coded wires erupt outward from the central clamp—an analog moment of data transmission halted and fossilized in form. It captures a balance between machine precision and unpredictable organic energy.

Materials List

  • Vintage wood clamp frame

  • Electrical terminal block

  • Multicolored telephone/communications wires

  • Soldered wire ends (with epoxy resin droplets)

  • Screws and nails

  • Black paint (on terminal block)

  • Wood stain/finish

A vivid cluster of colored wires, once part of an analog control or switching system, now bursts outward in a chaotic yet elegant array, anchored by a vise-like wooden frame. Each delicate wire terminates in a bead of solder or resin, resembling data signals frozen mid-transmission. The contrast of mechanical order and organic disarray evokes neural connectivity, electrical pathways, or the wild beauty of botanical forms transmuted into code.
