Volume, an installation piece made by an architecture collective named Softlab, is an interactive cube. It is made up of grids of responsive mirrors that redirect light and sound of the people surrounding the piece as a volume. It is interesting in that the motive of the piece is to capture the excitement of the festival-goers. Not only that I liked the sound it makes, but I was also intrigued by its scale and immersive visual. The mirrors are designed to rotate, track people’s movements as they walk around the installation, which creates a sense of infinite depth. The interface for the installation was built in Processing, tiling the coordinates of the cameras in order to visualize the interaction and convert the input into ambient sound.
