Liquid Space
Liquid Space is a space which physically reacts to the behavior of the visitor. Through the use of sensors, software and mechanisms, the space changes in form and sound.
If you sit silent Liquid Space will fall asleep, if there is a lot of activity the space will become larger and more dynamic. This way, an adaptive situation is created in which visitor and space become one.
Date:
2003, Graduation project Academy of Fine Arts, Enschede, NL.
Client:
Initiative of Daan Roosegaarde.
Specs:
Steel, software, sound, electronics, mechanism, sensors, pipes, paint; 8 x 4 x 5 meter.
Artistic production:
Daan Roosegaarde
In collaboration with:
KITT Engineering (electronics) and Peter de Man (software). Made possible with the support of Saxion Hogescholen Enschede (department Art and Technology), Sebastiaan Elstgeest and Architectuurcentrum Twente.
Comments:
"Daan Roosegaarde describes his work as fluctuating between sculpture and architecture. Last week I got the opportunity to find out more about his work when he talked at Game Set Match. Out of all his work his liquid space projects which he continues to develop were of most interest to me since he shares my curiosity with physically transforming space."
