Abstract:
REFLEXION In (out of) Sync is a reactive installation consisting of electroluminescent (EL) wire, in which visitors are encouraged to create together a light environment. In this manner two visitors are invited to sit next to each other surrounded by a light structure made of EL wire steered by their heartbeat via a finger pulse sensor. The purpose of this project is on the one hand to make visible unconscious internal reactions that are produced in the subject in a simple situation such as sitting next to another human being; on the other hand the project serves the purpose of inviting people to be aware of their inner-self and of the other, as well as of their environment. The installation is currently a work-inprogress.
