vecuum installation_beewoo&battery operated

The installation carried out at the 7 Degrees Media Centre in LA was an interactive installation piece.
Rooftops in the city create a spatial matrix of lost spaces, another city of 'archiscapes', which is known of but not often traversed, explored or socially defined.
Battery Operated rebuilt a rooftop that was an exact replica of a rooftop in the Skid Row area of LA. A construction company built it to building regulations. At the sidewalls were sensors that would sense people's movement on the roof. Above the roof, 62 speakers were built into the ceiling. The sensors were hooked upto an audioweb system, so that people's movement would trigger sounds directly above them. The sensors also detected people's movement towards the video screen. The nearer the audience moved to the screen the more anxious the movement of the figures (in silhouette on the slides) became, until if an audience member got within 5 feet of the screen, the figure would jump off the roof.
