Artist Statement:

An array of light sensors are fixed to the side of a public building, members of the public are invited to activate the sensors using torchlight which generates a sonic output. The work is an exploration of the relationship between input and outcome, which in this case is complex and unclear. Despite this complexity, users are able to derive some obscure sense their function within this complex system. The work addresses themes of interactivity and generatively in the context of group-based activity, and also questions the notion of intentionality and its opposite in the use of complex tools.
