Crystal Matrix II

 

Presented at Design Miami, the piece incorporates sixteen kinetic modules connected to a rotating disk suspended from the ceiling. Each module contains a disk with a crystal on it. The disks are illuminated by multi-colored LEDs and incorporate a continuously changing color and sound sequence, (Redl, Crystal Light Matrix II). The beauty of the crystals is accentuated by the use of the LED lights, and the simple audio gives a subtle ambiance to the experience. Spectators walk around the installation, getting multiple vantage points at the various crystals and the LED effects on them. The spectator is immersed in both sound and light, watching the rhythmic manipulation is both peaceful and awe-inspiring.
