Zdeněk Pešánek's interwar artistic practice, centered on the idea of color music, served as a loose inspiration for the audiovisual installation The Quality of Being Inconsistent. The project explores electricity through minimalist means, represented by the fourth state of matter—plasma. While the glass tube is composed of components similar to those Pešánek used in his work, it significantly pushes the boundaries of electricity’s artistic application. By employing contemporary techniques in musical composition and shifting emphasis from the object's mass and shape to the very nature of the light discharge, artist Jakub Pešek expands the possibilities within which Pešánek's inventive work operated nearly a century ago.
