The Modules
Each of their works includes luminous wires linked together with sensors and a microchip. Since the modules can be placed together in a variety of ways, it straightforward to present the installations in various ways, such as within city structures, public parks, etc.
The sensors are used to detect vibrations and sounds, and based on the intensity of the sounds, it controls the flashing of the light wires. This works to create an ever changing structure of light, which changes as the outside world changes. The dynamic nature of the installation combined with traffic sounds and other public activity gives it a “living and breathing” feel, and really bakes the installation into the surrounding area.
