Temple of
Singularity

An evolving project by Henry Tan

Where ritual meets
living systems.

A place to bring art, ancient knowledge and emerging technologies into conversation.

The Temple / a shared inquiry

How might a temple become a place for exploring our relationship with technology, nature and one another?

Temple of Singularity brings together sculpture, instruments, spatial studies and research collections. Move between a hand holding a laboratory tool, a wheel animated by wind, a garden shaped by water, and the symbolic systems through which we make sense of life.

Connected studies / 01–09

Many ways into the Temple.

9 projects
01Gold pipe hands holding tools in the kinetic Pillars of Creation hallway
Sculpture / gesture / installation

Pillars of Creation

One hundred hands holding instruments. Three four-armed figures. A hallway of moving tools. Mythological attributes meet the language of DIY biology.

02Myth-inspired wind sculptures in a coastal landscape
Wind / hand / light / sound

Mythic Current

One hundred turbine designs draw on creatures and myth. Turn a wheel by hand or explore a field of ninety kinetic sculptures across three landscapes.

03A landscaped garden containing fountain studies and water installations
Water / architecture / experience

Fountain Atlas

Fifty fountain studies, a shared water garden, a technical water lab and a reference library of water art. Explore form, flow, atmosphere and encounter.

04An educational spatial biology game with a micro-vessel navigating cells
Biology / play / impermanence

Cellular Odyssey

Pilot a micro-vessel through a simulated tissue world, inspect fictional single-cell profiles, and compare experimental compounds in a three-chapter arcade journey.

Space / heritage / belief
Architecture / worship / layered histories

Global Worship Architecture

A research collection of sacred places, architectural features and traditions. Explore sites as living, layered spaces with many names, affiliations and histories.

09
Frequency / space / geometry
Sound / architecture / resonance

Acoustic Architecture

A desktop and Blender toolkit explores how sound parameters can inform space and form, connecting frequency, approximate simulation, geometry and model export.

An archive in progress

A temple that
keeps becoming.

These projects are connected studies, each with its own methods, sources and limits. Models are design explorations; simulations are tools for inquiry. Existing research notes and attributions remain with each collection.

The Quantum Data Temple architectural models are recorded for a future import when their source files are available.
