Hormonium is a generative artwork depicting ocean waves and airborne text particles representing hormone acronyms. It explores chronobiology by releasing hormone groupings according to human time cycles, showcasing circadian, ultradian, and infradian rhythms. For instance, mornings feature cortisol, progesterone, and testosterone acronyms, while over an 80-year cycle, hormone levels shift—aldosterone and calcitonin decrease, and norepinephrine and parathyroid increase—reflecting aging.
