Bird Brain

Venue: Slade School of Fine Art
Artist: Nancy Krakaur
Consultancy & Design: Lewis Hannaby

'Bird Brain' is a lighting, sound and sculptural installation in which DMX is the beating heart. Each modulated record player creates a unique and ever changing live soundscape throughout the installation while displaying Nancy's illuminated moving sculptures atop.

For this project, I created four DMX controlled record players enabling us to gain control over the speed and direction using stepper motors. I also hacked the optics of some small LED fixtures to give us clean projected shadows and used EOS to program a 30 minute looping sequence.
