Project Feature: All the Light We Cannot See

#DLECTRICITY presents “All the Light We Cannot See” by Abhishek Narula, a responsive light installation that visualizes an invisible ambient phenomenon.

Setup in the trees on the lawn of the Detroit Institute of Arts, this installation is comprised of hundreds of LEDs lining the branches that glow, shimmer, and pulsate response to the ambient signals of smart phones, Bluetooth and Wi-fi devices in the vicinity.

Just as trees rely on visible light for photosynthesis and survival, this installation relies on the invisible waves given off by mobile devices for generating a vibrant light show. Read about this project and more happening September 24th and 25th by clicking the “ARTWORKS” tab!
