In technological and computer terminology, "Data Merging" refers to the process of comparing and relating different datasets to identify matches, patterns, or relationships among them. This process involves comparing data from multiple sources in order to extract additional information, validate data accuracy, or discover correlations between them. Data Merging is a commonly used technique in data analysis, data mining, business intelligence, and other areas where understanding relationships and patterns within large volumes of information is required.​​​​​​​

Lost in Distortion. Interstellar Echo.

In a world suffocated by the grim footprint of climate change and unchecked pollution, hope resides in the laboratories where brilliant minds work tirelessly. Among test tubes and microscopes, Neon Worms emerge as the promise for the future. Conceived to thrive in hostile environments, these bio-luminescent beings could be the key to restoring life to a planet darkened by desolation. In a glimmer of hope, science continues to strive, relentlessly seeking to bring color back to a withered world.

Ride the color waves with this geometric gradient series.

With this project, we've captured the dynamic and energetic essence of Tokyo through a unique perspective. Using a collection of photographs from this vibrant city, we've created a series of works that delve into the intrinsic interconnection. In these pieces, infinite patterns intertwine and overlap, reflecting the complexity and constant flow of Tokyo. Every detail, every line, every dot, represents a connection between the diverse elements that compose the urban landscape. All of this created with a retrofuturistic atmosphere, which may remind us of a printed circuit board. Tokyo is more than just a collection of buildings and streets; it's a living organism, pulsating with energy and movement. Through this visual representation, we invite the viewer to immerse themselves in the network of connections that define this fascinating city, discovering beauty in the chaotic harmony of its urban landscape.

A project about our digital footprint.

Ruben and Retoka's artistic project offers a captivating visual experience that transcends reality and immerses viewers in a new realm of New York City. Using their photography and digital art skills, they have created a unique and mesmerizing representation of one of the world's most photographed locations. What sets their work apart is their steadfast commitment to craft their artistic vision without the use of AI or third-party effects. Instead, they have relied on their own creative intuition to express their unique perspective of the Big Apple, utilizing vivid colors, intricate shapes, and innovative forms to transport the viewer to another world.

"Digital Minds" is the first collection of the RADIOGRAFIKA project and wants to invite reflection: The digitization of the human being is already inevitable, and at the same time we intend to humanize new technologies. With our art we want to make an X-ray of our increasingly digitized minds.

BIG DATA v02. How Big Data turns Art.

A collection of 45 frames, where each one is a revolution within a one-minute 45 rpm loop. This project represents the digital and technological revolution that we are constantly experiencing. It's like a wheel that doesn't stop spinning, and spins faster and faster. The shapes and 45 rpm speed are reminiscent of vinyl SPs, adding a nostalgic, retro-futuristic touch to the project. 45 items - 4000x4000px 1 Video loop - 1920x1080 - 30FPS 60sec​​​​​​​ By Toni López - Retoka.com

In 2015 we did this amazing project, "Client Error xx", about some Internet error codes, and we represented them with a feeling of humanization of the digital world. This project had a lot of impact and opened many doors for us, it was chosen to create the corporate image of the 2016 Adobe Summit that was celebrated in Las Vegas. 5 years later we have decided to recreate it, the same concept, the same photos, but with other techniques and thus be able to appreciate our own evolution. Hope you like it.

During these quarantine days, caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, we took a breath and decided to make a series of posters inspired by the most common words and hashtags related to this problem. We have drawn the lines with barcodes of the words themselves. These codes have been generated following the standard Code-39 ASCII.

This is our tribute to the human part behind the motorsport world (drivers, engineers, mechanics, managing directors...) who make this races possible thanks to their passion, dedication and unsparing efforts to improve race after race.
