Midlight

midlight

From 12 – 18 December, look out for Midlight, an interactive field of lights that will pop up at Birmingham Cathedral, ThinkTank and Eastside Park.

Made by British-Chinese artist Aowen Jin and commissioned by Birmingham Hippodrome CREATIVE, the piece is a constantly changing public artwork, which the spectator can alter:

Watch as the fibre optics react differently to each spectator, and take control of the entire field by interacting with it on Twitter…. Specially designed modules containing Raspberry Pis control thousands of LEDS, each featuring 9,000 colour variations. The lights constantly learn from their surroundings, adjusting intelligently to make sure that no two experiences with the artwork are ever the same.

More information can be found on the Midlight website.
