When Buildings Come To Life

What happens when you combine 1 building, 40,000 LEDs, a couple of electronica tunes, and 4 programmers/composers? An entire building can come to life, and dance to the rhythm while accenting the melodies. Front and foreground, standing in the limelight is the Ars Electronica museum in Linz, Austria. The project was developed using a mix of Ableton Live, Max/MSP, PureData, and OSC. Thankfully, the members involved had the foresight to record the performance, and the museum can replay the audio w/ the visuals at any time. (audio starts around 20 seconds)

    Flare

    Flare is a modular, computer-driven system that creates a moving skin for the facade of a building and it was created by Christopher Bauder and Christian Perstl. The Flare units are made up of computer controlled metal flake bodies which are by supplemented pneumatic cylinders. A great futuristic outer shell for any building. Because of the shape and size of each unit it can be placed on any designed building.
