MASARY “Sound Sculpture” Interactive Light and Audio Experience
Whether you’re a music lover, a tech enthusiast, or are just looking for a magical winter night out in Providence, MASARY’s “Sound Sculpture” at Three Nights of Lights invites you to step into a glowing world of light and music that you have a hand in creating!
WHAT IT IS:
“Sound Sculpture” is an interactive sound and light instrument for spontaneous, cooperative composition. 25 location-aware blocks comprise a massive, wireless midi controller. Each cube represents a note in spatial dimension and time, and your interaction with and placement of the cubes creates musical structures. Unique sound and lights scores are created and realized with each audience engagement.
WHAT IT’S LIKE:
The experience is like walking onto sheet music, picking up the musical notes and moving them around to change the pitch, rhythm, melody and harmony!
