LOTUS POND

Interactive Floor Projection

Inspired by a 1940s bronze lamp, Lotus Pond playfully explores the intersection between utility and decoration. Wade through the pond of light and see how your presence affects the environment.

Animations included goldfish beneath the surface of the water, and lotus flowers that open and close based on distance from each visitor. Sound design was also tied to interaction. Lotus Pond was originally developed for Night Lights, a light festival at MOTAT (Museum of Transport and Technology).
