Interstice - 2014

Illuminated from within, each time a note is played the light within the work grows and then fades, plunging participants momentarily into darkness.

Artist Alex Peckham is showing his artwork Interstice, together with an entirely new piece designed as a response to this work. Interstice combines spatialised sound, dynamic lighting and traditional sculptural techniques to produce a subtly interactive installation which sonifies the human genome, creating a melody that would take centuries to play to its conclusion.

At the core of the work is a four foot long inverted boat-like form cast in water clear resin. Illuminated from within, each time a note is played the light within the work grows and then fades, plunging participants momentarily into darkness.

A number of creative technology workshops for children will accompany the work – find out more on the project website interstice.org.uk
