Resonance

An interactive projection onto the facade of Uppsala Town Hall for Allt Ljus på Uppsala, where the public painted the building in colour by standing on four pads in the square.

I built the pads. Each one is weatherproofed with lighting embedded in its edge, made to survive a Swedish winter outdoors and a great many people jumping on it, and each triggers a ripple of colour across the facade. Activate all four at once and a final sequence of light and music plays out.

The building was drone-scanned to make a digital replica, and a laser-cut scale model stood in for it while the projection was tested.
