Plattform

June 1st, 2008

In year 2006 I was invited to participate in a group show at the Natioanl Museum of Science and Technology in Stockholm, Sweden. For the exhibition I produced the work “platform” that consisted of a long corridor that one could walk in.

The installation consisted of 14 spotlights that hang in two lines along the platform.There where triggers under a carpet that followed the whole corridor that were activated when walked on. Each trigger had a soundtrack and a lightspot linked to it and these where activated when you walked on a trigger. Each sound was a small sequence from Frank Sinatras “New York, New York” and when the sound sequence stopped the spotlight was turned off. If one walked along the whole platform from the beginning to the end and in the right order one could play the whole tune.

The exhibition was produced by The Interactive Institute in Stockholm and curated by Björn Norberg.
