Media Architecture Institute

This Project is some years old; even older than Blinken Lights and also very influential. By posting it now, we are fixing a big hole in our collection

In order to pool our events and to underline the festival character we moved the exhibition opening to the Oct 16, 2008. It will be open till Dec 12, 2008. This will save time and travel costs, especially for exhibition participants who want to attend the conference on Oct 17 and 18.

Performance for a matrix of 64 gas balloons, lights, and sound

A room is filled with deep, evolving noises from a four-channel sound system. An eight-by-eight array of white, self-illuminated spheres floats in space like the atoms of a complex molecule.

Through variable positioning and illumination of each atom, a dynamic display sculpture comes into being, composed of physical objects, patterns of light, and synchronous rhythmic and textural sonic events. Change, sound, and movement converge into a larger form.
