Sun Speak is an interactive light and sound installation, installed at the 2014 DUMBO Arts Festival in New York City in collaboration with Kevin Siwoff.
Upon entering the exhibition, visitors saw a pulsing column of light bridging the balcony and ground floor near the center of the room. Its colors and intensity were driven by microphones located inside the tube at each end. Visitors were invited to sing, speak, or yell into either end of the tube to create new light patterns traveling from one end to the other.
Because the ends were on different floors of the space, it was typical that strangers were creating light patterns across the piece by whistling, speaking, or singing to one another.
