A suspended garden of lightweight translucent forms made of multiple layers of laser cut plexiglas. These computer generated blossoms pulse in response to local real time data such as river water flows, barometric pressure, CO2 levels and air particulate readings. In addition, the environment reacts dramatically to people passing under it through responsive sound and quickening light pulses. What music will you create as you walk through? Created by Mary Neubaeur and Todd Ingalls.
