Celebrating Connection
Titel:
Melding Art and Science
Pulse Voronoi is a biometric light and sound installation that explores both our human individuality and our shared origins. Within this Chamber of Wonder, 7,000 clear crystals are suspended from the ceiling, pulsing in sync with the heartbeat of its visitors.
Biometric Brilliance
As each crystal lights up, it gradually becomes clear that they are illuminating in time with the viewer’s heartbeat, so that pulse and crystals are acting in unison. Each is charged with individual luminosity yet forms part of a glittering collective.
In a Heartbeat
Unique light patterns are generated using five heart rate sensors that detect the pulse of every person who places their hand under them. Despite following its own beat, each pulse glimmers with the power of connection.
Memento Mori
As each new pulse is recorded, the oldest leaves the room, providing a poignant memento mori. A beautiful reminder that even the most mesmerizing moments are fleeting and only our memories live on.
Crystal Voices
Kristallstimmen, translated as Crystal Voices, is a sonic portrait that celebrates the untold stories and hidden voices of the people who make Swarovski.
Shared Stories
Visitors enter a space suspended with 3,000 crystal loudspeakers, each playing a recording made by a Swarovski team member as they pass underneath.
Made in the Mountains
Inspired by echoes in the Austrian Alps, Kristallstimmen conducts a choir of voices layered with different languages, intonations, and whispers.
Bringing History to Life
Providing an oral history of the people who make Swarovski, this emotional Chamber of Wonder will intrigue and inspire.
