Description

From the artist:

    "An Interactive Lighting Installation (2010)

     Six-Forty by Four-Eighty is an interactive lighting installation composed of an array of magnetic, physical pixels. Individually, pixel- 

    tiles change their color in response to touch and communicate their state to each other by using a person's body as the conduit for 

    information. When grouped together, the pixel-tiles create patterns and animations that can serve as a tool for customizing our 

    physical spaces. By transposing the pixel from the confines of the screen and into the physical world, focus is drawn to the 

    materiality of computation and new forms for design emerge."
