project description:

The project aims at developing new technologies for a large outdoor installation. These new technologies include "audio spotlights" (Ultrasound sound projectors) and "Eyecon" (a new tracking system and interactive tool for sound and video). Along with traditional loud speakers, these new tools for creativity will allow me to treat an outdoor area of a few hundred metres in which the audience will become the reactive component for creating a sound scape.
