Every circle on the dancefloor is connected to two sounds, in total twelve different soundclips (one for every sleeve). By moving the sleeves with the accelerometers, the sounds are influenced through timestretching. These specific sounds are […]

The motors that move the chutes are small but rather strong. At 12 Volts they pull around one or two Amps when they are mounted to a chute. During the first test with the motor controllers, we discovered that when a motor is suddenly turned the opposite way, a reversed current arises. Using an ordinary […]
