HEARTSYNC

What does a session look like?

Ten people can participate in the interactive installation. They sit in a circle and wear heart rate sensors (ear clips). Through a soundscape and a voice-over, participants receive instructions. The visual patterns that surround you at the start of the session as light circles on the ground are initially individual, based on your own heartbeat. As synchronization strengthens, increasingly complex geometric patterns emerge in the middle of the floor, connecting the participants as a group, a self-reinforcing effect. Nino: "People's reactions vary greatly. Some immediately open up and fully immerse themselves in the experience. Others tend to stay in their heads or can't get past their own judgments. That, too, is human. What I hope for is that we feel much more attracted to each other than divided."
