WHITEvoid’s FLUIDIC light / art installation uses both the elements of light and moving sculpture to express and entice it viewers. Designed by the Berlin based design studio WHITEvoid for Hyundai’s Advanced Design Center, WHITEvoid has seemlessly brought Hyundai’s design philosophy to life via a large interactive light / art sculpture. Drawing inspiration from nature’s natural rhythms and creative adaptive abilities, FLUIDIC incorporates organized chaos into a sculpture of random molecules.
The sculpture’s storyline is: “With a liquid surface transmuting into vapor, seemingly random molecules forming an organized cloud and sensing the presence of life around the arrangement. Shaped by human interactions, the molecules begin to swarm – aggregating and accumulating. They are constantly in motion, reacting and adapting with the people who seek to engage with the installation.”
FLUIDIC uses 12,000 translucent spheres that mark the heart of its installation, combined with complex computer algorithm sequences to organize the spheres into random cloud like formations. The algorithms communicate with the installation’s eight high-speed laser projectors. (You can just feel it working up to something.)
And finally, beams of light scan through the cloud arrangements, creating bright light and shadows thought the whole massive moving installation. Wow! If you are in Milan between April 9 and 14, 2013 be sure to stop by the Temporary Museum for New Design to get a glimpse, or watch the video below.
