By connecting specialized sensors to each string, our team created an interactive system allowing user interaction to trigger an assortment of corresponding sounds. These sounds are artfully woven into an already vibrant background track that is further amplified by an array of FX elements, all of which are contained within this awe-inspiring sculpture.
The team accomplished the challenging task of creating an interactive instrument that could withstand the use of multiple fans and endure tough weather conditions in downtown Chicago. To achieve this, they utilized aluminum framing, dibond, and integrated smart technology. We extensively tested the instrument to ensure its performance for any user and trigger amount as well as the ability to withstand various weather conditions, resulting in a successful outcome.
