Interactive and generative Installation.
(Vidéo/Light/Sound)
The magic cube is a graphic monolith, made from a mysterious scattering glowing matter.
Placed around, 28 bicycles are connected to the core, the graphic engine.
The speed and the stamina of the 20 riders produce a data stream, with an unique pattern, that generate the graphics, animations and sounds layers in real-time.

A 3 minutes ride to reach the level of pure energy, the white matter.
Each bicycle supply a digitized signal that is stream to the main application.
Everything is done with Touch Designer :
Graphics, animation, particle and physics, shading and glsl, rendering, programming, light control (dmx), sound modulation (a bridge with Ableton Live).
The main challenge was to render generative and 360° seamless graphic texture .
Bike's data flow is process individuality and as a group to modulate different generator, creating different levels of graphics, set according the main timeline.

A sequence of 240s that drive the rise of the energy until the climax. The cube becomes pure energy, lighting up the statue (Louis XIV) and a burst of fireworks to reward our riders.
