Looking Outwards-04

I researched Seiko Mikami’s Desire of Codes. This is a project which uses a variety of sensors and small lights, as well as cameras to follow the movements of visitors. The movements trigger a response throughout all of the units, and lights are pointed on the visitor. I find it very intriguing how Mikami programmed all of these units to work in tandem to create an interactive experience for visitors. The sound created gives a slightly uneasy feeling, as the sounds given off by the guests are translated to sound like insects flying. I think this is an interesting idea, especially because of the creators intention to play with time and space.
