SYN

A dynamic installation by Artereazione+Consonant inspired by the synapses of the human brain.

SYN  is constructed out of acrylic spheres and pvc tubes to create an artificial nervous system. Video-mapping technology pairs with social media as participants switch on the “social brain” by sending a tweet through SYN’s dedicated application or their own personal device. These actions trigger surges of light impulses that travel throughout the sculpture, simulating the activity of a central nervous system and creating a unique audio-visual performance.

SYN is collaborative project produced by two Italian-based groups, Artereazione+Consonant, both directed by Mariano Leotta.
