Times, 2023

Mechanical metronome brass bells, solenoid actuators, microcontrollers, time-of-flight sensors, acoustic waves

The work emits a loop of low pitches once activated as well as high pitches that emerge when the actuator network triggers in relation to the sensor-detected presence of visitors in proximity to a bell.

Steps, 2022

LED strip lights, time-of-flight sensors, microcontrollers, stainless steel profiles

Triggered through visitors entering the work‘s sensory radius the LED strip lights change color to random hues along the visible light spectrum.

Scent, 2022

Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) sensor, microcontroller, stainless steel casing, cloud server, projector, Unreal Engine particle system

The work functions as a real time olfactory visualisation mechanism that translates visiors‘ molecules/aromatic profiles into light gradients and shapes via interaction with the VOC sensor.

Drop, 2022

Borosilicate glass separatory funnel, water, stainless steel braided wire, stainless steel clamps, 2-axis mechanical motion system, microcontroller, fuse board, transformer

The work oscillates in a randomly generated pattern via the use of Arduino software, releasing small drops of water that momentarily mark the floor, only to gradually evaporate and disappear again.
