EELUMINATE
For the 2024 annual Northside Festival Kollision collaborated with the Atmospheric team from NorthSide and light manufacturer Martin Professional on designing a wooden structure at one of the central areas between the two main stages.
The concept reused elements from earlier installations, turning the wooden panels and LED grids from Arena (2019) and The Eel (2023) into a geometric spiral - a 16 metres sculptural super furniture and landmark suited for a break, maybe a meetup between friends or partying during one of the many concerts.
Some would say the EELuminate is unrEEL.
GATES OF SOUND AND LIGHT
The spiral shape creates five distinct gates that invite by-passers inside the structure. On the inside perforated wooden panels allow LED grids to create a warm and welcoming space underlined by the ethereal sound design spatially spread by speakers in each gate. The LED grids in total create a continuous line of light from end to end emphasising the five gates as imaginary doorways. Sensors in each gate detect if a person is present, which triggers additional light and sound effects. The gate becomes illuminated in brighter colours and the volume of the soundscape increases as if a large instrument were played simply by your presence.
The smooth interactive interplay between people and the wooden spiral is only interrupted once every hour where faster bright lights pull you out of the dreamy experience.
OUR ROLE
Together with NorthSide Kollision designed the concept of the interactive light and sound sculpture. Kollision designed the sensor system and infrastructure, the spatially distributed sound design and MAP was used to develop the dynamic light designs.
