Interactive installation that transforms sound and gesture into an immersive luminous environment.
Commissioned by Imogen Heap as the centrepiece for the Camden Roundhouse’s Reverb 2014 Festival of Contemporary Classical Music, and has grown to be resident centrepiece for the Roundhouse’s August Summer Sessions.
A lightweight central structure bundles together a series of LED- strip fibres that burst from the stage & soar above the performers, luminously reacting to sounds and gestures. The ‘branches’ arch along the Roundhouse structure, a few bowing down into the audience – rewarding participatory interaction
Camden Roundhouse
A lightweight central steel structure (initially clamped to a Roundhouse column, but free-standing on tour) bundles together a series of off-the-shelf LED-strips, which are sheathed in thick, protective translucent PVC tubing that enables them to be loosely bundled and structurally suspended in the air, while describing organic, slowly-curving geometries.
