Enter the Void is an interactive installation showcased at the 6°GDC exhibition at Chelsea College of Arts, London. It explores the idea of manipulating the physical environment through movement by harnessing the conductive properties of the human body.
A touch sensor, made from a standard art canvas coated with Electric Paint, and an Arduino board, measures the body’s capacitance and sends the incoming values to a Processing sketch, which translates it into shapes and sound. The resulting piece heightens the user’s awareness of human presence and its effects on the surrounding environment.
