It is an ecosystem comprised of hundreds of individual, independent modules that click in response to light. If a light is shone brightly on a module, it will click more rapidly. In the dark, the sound is sparse. Although each of the units responds almost identically to light intensity, when they are distributed across a space, their individual experience of the light creates a polyrhythmic soundscape. In bright light, this sounds almost like a field of cicadas and in lower lights more like the end of a storm, with drops falling from the eaves. In all lights, the emergent behaviour makes the piece feel alive and watching the development and changes in the system is a dynamic and meditative experience. \nEach module is fitted with a light sensor, LED and an analog oscillator circuit. When light is shone on the sensor, the paper membrane on each unit vibrates to create a soft click and at the same time, the LED flashes on and off. The incoming light intensity dictates the rate of vibration such that the emergent audio and light patterns from the group are a direct response to the environment.","space":"Ideally, the space should have a very low or no natural lighting, so that the lighting of the installation can be controlled. The installation is modular, which means that it can adapt to a variety of spaces and the modules can be placed either on the ground or on the walls. For best effect, the modules need to be distributed in space of at least 5m long.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[{"names":"Sean","surname":"Malikides","email":"sean@kailaboratory.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"-","address":"Studio 20, Victor House, 282 Richmond Road","city":"London","nacionality":"Australian\/Cypriot","country_id":"81","birthdate":"1993-04-16T23:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1993-04-16T23:00:00.000Z","telephone":"-","web":"www.kailaboratory.com"},{"names":"Ruby","surname":"Dixon","email":"ruby@kailaboratory.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"-","address":"Studio 20, Victor House, 282 Richmond Road","city":"London","nacionality":"Australian\/British","country_id":"81","birthdate":"1994-03-24T00:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1994-03-24T00:00:00.000Z","telephone":"-","web":"www.kailaboratory.com"},{"names":"Marguerite","surname":"Tricaud","email":"marguerite@kailaboratory.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"-","address":"Studio 20, Victor House, 282 Richmond Road","city":"London","nacionality":"French","country_id":"81","birthdate":"1994-01-04T00:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1994-01-04T00:00:00.000Z","telephone":"-","web":"www.kailaboratory.com"}],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/394921452","audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":0,"names":"Marguerite","surname":"Tricaud","email":"marguerite@kailaboratory.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"-","address":"-","city":"-","nacionality":"-","country_id":"81","birthdate":"1994-01-04T00:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1994-01-04T00:00:00.000Z","telephone":"-","web":"www.kailaboratory.com"}
