Laser Harp Q
sound/light/movement immersive installation
An interactive immersive sound and light installation, this participatory musical instrument consists of four frames (2m wide x 2m high) arranged to form a three-dimensional cube. Each frame features 12 vertically aligned laser beams; interrupting these beams with any part of the body triggers a sound and activates an array of LEDs. Functioning as individual instruments tuned to the same tonality, the four frames invite solo or collaborative play, transforming the cube into a shared space of sonic and visual creation.
Each frame comprises an instrument itself with its own set of sound, while each four frames are tuned under the same tonality. This way, the audience is invited to take part of the experience by playing one of these frames alone or together with other participants who can play the other frames.
Laser Harp Q is an unusual electronic instrument that encourages participation & collaboration. We get closer to other people in order to create together; create while having fun.
This instrument is based on its little sibling, the Laser Harp. For more detail in its way of working refer to laser_harp installation
