27.02.2023, Synthux Hackathon 2023

SYNTHUX HACKATHON

Creation of the “green_zone” installation

· Our installation is inspired by the sentence “the habitat for coexistence”. We have created an instrument which is able to work properly only if three performers are present. You can control two parameters: the light and sound. The light is telling you if you are close to the destination or not – when the players cooperated well and the task is done you can see the green light in each performer’s position. In that particular moment the patch generates very specific sound which was not present before.

· Makers: Przemysław Pacek, Barbara Zach, Lena Michajłów
