The project “//movingshapes” is a media installation in which active and courageous participation is not only allowed, but encouraged! Using creative coding and processing, the technology of a Kinect interacts with the viewer: the forward, backward or sideways movement of the viewer’s own body sets objects in motion and changes the soundscape. Behind this were 18 algorithms that were developed by the students and also reflect the personality and inspiration of each individual through different shapes, colors and sounds. The visual part of the installation “//movingsshapes” won an award at the Prix Ars Electronica. The students then developed the original interactive soundscapes for the color and shape codes for KLANGLICHT 2019. This enabled them to create an audiovisual media installation that allows visitors to become part of a digital work of art with their eyes and ears.
