A B O U T

Wander through the Crystal Universe is an interactive installation work that uses the soundscape and lighting effects that fully submerges its audience into a whole new realm of escape. The lights are formed by creating many light points that light up to form a spectacular circumambient, a whimsical Crystal World that is fully immersive.

The circumambient forms an expression of a world inside Crystal World, an imaginative, impressionable space created through the combination of light and sound effects.

I N T E R A C T I V I T Y

Audiences can fish out their mobile phones and gain control of what is displayed in the Crystal World. A universal element is selected, by simply swiping in the direction of the Crystal World, the element will be shown through the changes in the light points that lights up and are created. This creates a different “cosmic” experience for the audiences.

Digital technology has allowed art to liberate itself from the physical and transcend boundaries. -teamLab
