Exploring the "Invisible Structure of Sound" through mechanical interaction. By mapping human kinetic energy to sonic frequency, we materialize complex vibrations into physical sand patterns.
Gesture Mapping: Interaction begins with a mechanical hand. We used Arduino and 10 potentiometers to capture finger movement data—two data points per finger. These values control the frequency and volume of five different sounds in real time, creating a direct loop between body, sound, and material.
"A microscopic world shaped by sound—abstract forms, bioluminescent glow, and organic patterns. A cinematic journey from data to bioluminescence."
