About Pulse Instal·lació Lumínica

Pulse és una instal·lació lumínica creada per al Festival del Fanal de Taiwan de 2022, al parc nacional de Weiwuying, a Kaohsiung. La instal·lació expressa els estats emocionals dels nous immigrants a través de la llum i el so. L'estructura està feta de tubs d'acer, amb malla de fibra fixada a cada tub entre un anell superior i una base ondulada. Les tires de llum LED es controlen digitalment per seguir la música de fons composta per a l'obra. El pavelló s'il·lumina a la posta de sol, i cada trenta minuts es presenta un espectacle de llum de tres minuts de durada. Pulse mesura 7 metres d'amplada, 7,8 metres de fondària i 5,8 metres d'alçada.

Production Technology
The structure mainly employs steel tubes in different diameters, allocated adequately with structural loads. The fiber mesh is installed on each steel tube that connects the top ring and bottom waved structure. The LED light strip and the bottom steel structure are digitally controlled to match the background sounds.
Design Challenge
The most challenging aspect of this project is to integrate digital lighting with a physical steel structure. However, lighting scenarios and structural design were nicely coordinated to overcome the challenges.
Research
Pulse visualizes the emotional states of immigrants when they enter a new realm. It appears to be still, yet sometimes beats harshly and sometimes expresses slowly. Migrating to a new environment has all kinds of feelings, including hope, excitement, nervousness, fear, and joy. There are many to expect during the process, difficulties to deal with, and challenges to face. These emotional waves are critical elements of a new journey, yet unable to share with new neighbors. Therefore, in the theme of new immigrants, we express the emotional condition with digitalized lighting and music with the surface of the metamorphosed pulse wave.
Inspiration
The concept of Pulse is to digitize the emotional into light signal. The LED stripe coheres with the background music, which specifically created for this installation.
Project Duration
