Title: Dark Star
About: Dark Star Installation
Description: DarkStar is a developing interactive sculpture for public space that generates an
audiovisual interpretation of its direct and indirect surroundings. The installation
reacts to the space it is situated in and the people around it but also to the
movements of the stars.
DarkStar is intended to be an interactive monument for the contemporary citizen
and the contemporary city. Rather than celebrating a significant historical landmark
or a person, it is devoted to the universe and the passage of time. The monument
is best seen at night, when it reflects lunar phases and the surface of the starry sky.
Responding to movement in its vicinity, it also generates a sound scape.
