Light sensors placed on the walls, roof and floor of an empty, darkened room monitor the light levels from flashlight beams in the hands of the public. Custom software designed with MAX monitors the sensors and converts lights intensity levels into performance data which is in turn used by the sound producing modules and the audio mixer. The public performs the audio work with flashlights in real time.
