Light Parade
Wellington 2012
Interupt Collective
Light Parade is an interactive installation, a bodily instrument, to be played and performed with, to generate a real-time composition of light and sound. This digital media installation tracks movement, generating sound from the space occupied by the physical body. The experience is one of four dimensions; as the person moves through the space, a composition of sound and light is created within a real-time reactive and interactive performance piece. The work investigates self awareness of our body's occupancy of space, a feedback loop for oneself as audience and performer at the same time.
Interrupt is a collective of digital-media artists, interaction designers, live video performers and sonic artists working across a range of live performance projects and installations. The binding principle of the collective is to generate experimental work that explores the boundaries between architecture, video, performance, sound and interaction. Alongside multiple theatre projects, the members of Interrupt have been involved in The Performance Arcade 2011 (Auckland and Wellington), Random Acts 2011, StageSpace 2011, The WGTN LUX Symposium 2011, Prague Quadrennial 2011, Auckland Festival of Arts and the Wellington International Arts Festival. In 2011 Interrupt also received a Best Design Award, as well as the Critics Wild Card Award at the Chapman Tripp Theatre awards for outstanding A/V design.
