>CONCEPT
Five are the senses, many more the combinations of feelings.
If senses describe reality, their combination is an ideal and intangible depiction.
Unità Zero let itself be explored, narrating the ideal by means of the sensible, in a seamless synestetic chain of sensations.
>PROJECT
Unità Zero is composed of 5 walkable platforms. Such elements represent the sensitive nodes of the system, triggered by means of a simple pressure, exercised generally with feet or hands, from the visitor. The activation of the platform unleash a chain reaction on three different levels:
- local level (light feedback): represented by a pulsating, red flashlight emitted by four LED strips located under the transparent surface of the platform. This blinking light is the first reply perceived by the visitor about the activation of the trigger.
- visual level (video sequencing): every platform acts as a push button: on or off. Therefore there are up to 32 possible combinations: each one is codified with a specific video, which is played back on the display system.
- auditory level (audio mix): in addition to video, each platform triggers his own audio sample. When more than one platform is triggered, each sample is mixed together and the result is a composite looping sound which is always in synch.
>SIMULATION
Sorry, flash is not available.
Click over each of the five pads to simulate a latching presence over the pad itself. Trick with any combination: results can be seen and heard.
