The interaction of this piece consists of people playing the literal strings they see criss crossing through the room, and then the piano will play a corresponding note to that string.
I think it's so interesting to represent a string instrument with actual string; the spatiality of this piece really draws me towards it, and the feedback (music) I get makes me want to continue playing it.
The concept is centered on this question: What if we could express architecture through music? Architecture and music, to me, provides very different senses but through this, I'm able to have multi-sensory responses as I am walking through the installation.
I enjoy the process of which the artists created this because the utilized 3D modeling tools, coded the layout and music, and wired everything with Arduino, but the final piece feels like all of that is really in the background; the tech doesn't really feel like it is in the forefront of the installation at all. The piece focuses on the strings and the music that accompanies it, and I feel like it's an immersive way for people to interact with song.
