3204 Lights On [openFrameworks]

lighton

Leading on from just posted oF workshop in London, comes Lights On installation for the Ars Electronica museum in Linz, Austria. The visuals have been coded in openframeworks by Zachary Lieberman, Joel Gethin Lewis and Damian Stewart (yesyesno), music is by Daito Manabe, with support from Taeji Sawai and Kyoko Koyama. Building’s facade contains 1085 LED controllable windows  with colors that change in realtime to music broadcasted on speakers surrounding the building. Interestingly, the project was put together in just three days!!

The LED strips built into one side of 1,100 of the glass facade’s panels are 20-120 cm long. A strip’s cross-section is 30 x 45 mm; each is studded with 20-48 high-output LEDs. The 40,000 diodes are split equally between red, green, blue and white. Soldered onto printed circuit boards, the individual LEDs are a 2.4 x 4.5 mm at their base and 2 mm high. Mounted on each diode is a special 22 x 22-mm lens that casts the light onto the glass panels. Each of the 1,100 LED strips can be individually controlled by an electronic unit that makes it possible to fine-tune brightness and the color mix (more on ledinside.com)

You can find out about the project at few places: ledinside.com, ledfassaden.at, multi-vision.at and daito.ws.
