LOTUS ILLUTRONICA (Skanderborg, July 2009)
A musical symphony initiated by gentle waves or insistent swimmers as the floating tire ensembles are rocked in the water. The buoys, constructed from car tires and polystyrene, have waterproof RGB LED ropes which glow and change colors as the buoys detect movement and change their sound and color accordingly.
The installation, Lotus illutronica was deployed at Skanderborg festival, offering a fun interactive element in the nearby lake for warm festival goers to play with. The installation now resides in the harbour waters outside the illutron barge and glow each night with gently pulsating colors.
