MICRO -pollen- explores the small universe that is our body and mind. It has 200 translucent balls hanging from a structure (truss or existing), each ball containing a speaker and an LED light. When a ball is bumped into it generates a unique sound, and lights up with one of 5 different colors. As people play with the balls they are engulfed by a symphony of lights and sounds surrounding them on all sides.
 

MICRO -pollen- delves into a world we cannot see, but is the very fabric of reality, the world of atoms, sub-atomic particles, and quantum fluctuation. It’s a world of incomprehensible mystery, but one we experience every moment of our lives, even if we don’t realize it. To journey within is to experience this reality. MICRO -pollen- enables people to take that journey. Together, the participants recreate this world where particles, waves, and vibrating energy are all interchangeable states. This is realized with strands of hanging balls that light up and make sound from within when bumped. As people touch the balls, each ball replies with a different sound and light.
