Developing a multi-performative Interactive Acoustic System for the Science Center.

Problem statement

Primary
Lessen the sound in the building by sound diffusion and absorption
Sounddiagrams.jpg
Secondary
Encourage the visitors to be more quiet (especially children)
Give expression to the acoustics of the Science Center

Concept

The concept is composed of the following aspects:

Acoustic properties
- Sound ceiling with acoustic properties, passes down data to the LED painting

Time layers
- Short term layer (mostly interesting for children)
- Long term layer (mostly interesting for adults)

Reflection
- Paint a picture of the sound over the long-term

Inspiration

"Whisper - Whispering makes the children curious. They want to know if something secret is going on. Whispering gets their attention much more than yelling." [1]

“If you interrupt us while we’re talking, we will not respond. Learn to pay attention.” [2]
