The project's last two-day experimental-interactive installation performance questioned the concept of degitized nature and the subsequent human relationship with light and sound, as two essential elements of nature, under the influence of today's dominant digitization wave.

​

In the Structured Light Lab (SLL), a digital holographic light spot was generated in an infinite responsive loop so that its patterns could produce a mutual response to the surrounding noises. On one hand, the generated holographic spot splits into two copies: the gray spot, which is the original nonresponsive one, and the colored spot, whose patterns and position are affected by the frequency of the surrounding voices. On the other hand, interactions between the two versions of the holographic spot synthesize a machinery melody in non-linear rhythms.

​

The real-time interactive installation was built to remotely communicate between the installation's optical setup in the SLL and the exhibition place. Thus, the holographic spot was generated, sustainably developed, and presented itself through real-time interactions with the exhibition room, creating a responsive environment.

​

​The interactors were integrated into the holographic spot's visual, sound, and rendering processes. By establishing a remote connection between the performance zone and the holographic optical setup in the optics lab, the main performer and other interactors were enabled to acoustically communicate with the holographic setup.

 

As a result of the interactions between the holographic setup and the performer's voice frequencies, a dynamic holographic spot was produced. The performer performed a set of hymns in both English and South Africa's native languages, acoustically mimicking the holographic spots' synthesized non-linear melody. In response, the holographic pattern recognizes some hymns as texts and sends them back as echoes.
