Light Drift

There was a 3 day, interactive lighting installation along the banks of the Schuylkill river which we loved seeing. There were light chairs along the banks with sensors in them, which interacted with the floating orbs in the water.

The artist, J. Meejin Yoon, described the installation:

"The resting state of the field is a constant state of green. When a visitor approaches a land orb, the orb will start an “enticement mode” by pulsing between blue and green. If a visitor sits on the orb, the pulsing will transition to a blue state. The water orbs that align with the land orb will change colors at the same time, creating a linear extension of blue lights in the water."

Tanzen and Makett wished we could take one of the land orbs home!
