Sculpting with light, drawing with sounds, illuminate the architecture. A sensitive carpet of laser beams, the passage of the public, activate a spectacular choreography of laser projection and musical compositions. An architecture of light and sound every time different, shaped by the movements of the spectators. In the dreamlike atmosphere of the installation, lasers multiply in an enveloping and engaging dynamic network, enhancing the geometry and details of the surrounding architecture.

Intersecting laser beams on the ground work as barriers/switches that, freely interrupted by the audience, activate the specific soundtracks related with each laser beam. The activated soundtracks send, in real time, their musical notes to the software that controls the laser projectors above. The laser projectors, highlight the architectural elements of the building according to audience interaction with the space and the laser beams on the ground.
