installation piece

I had the idea to do a dynamic or interactive piece for the show. I see lots of repetition in GD Senior shows here, and while the work is often spectacular, I have gotten bored with the same old printed material.

My strongest idea so far is to do something in Processing or Flash that will react to the sound in the gallery during the show. The idea so far is to translate volume levels of certain tones or pitches into movement. A grid of text would be projected onto the wall. Each letter in the grid would be tied to a certain tone/pitch and fluctuate in size based on the volume of the particular tone it was tied to.

Thats what I have so far.

More later.
