About Beehive Fireworks Lutz Interactiva
Lo jorn, la forma evòca un batèu marchand de la dinastia Qing que fend las ondas, un moment gelat d'esposcada d'aiga que cristalliza l'anciana glòria del pòrt. Quand tomba la nuèch, l'òbra d'art se transfòrma en fuòcs d'artifici en forma de bornhàs que s'auçan, en utilizant lo jòc de la lutz e de l'ombra per murmurar una pregària serena. La pèça utiliza los reflèctes sus l'aiga per crear una vista simetrica d'amont dels fuòcs d'artifici, mentre que las ondulacions naturalas de l'aiga recrèan autenticament lo dinamisme erratic e entrecrosat de la pirotecnia.

Press Kit
- Unique Properties
- The core of the installation utilizes real-time generative algorithms to produce lighting effects. Unlike traditional pre-rendered loops, the visuals are synthesized instantly to ensure a non-repetitive aesthetic, mimicking the unpredictable nature of live fireworks. By integrating audience spatial data, it creates a unique visual experience for every individual.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Dimensions:
4,000 mm x 4,000 mm x 3,000 mm
Materials:
Black iron tubes
LED pixel strips
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) for buoyancy
Technical Properties:
Oak ai camera system for real-time sensing.
Computer-based controller for custom interaction logic. - Tags
- Beehive Fireworks, Water Reflections, Generative Light, Taiwan Culture, Interactive Installation
- Production Technology
- The core of the installation utilizes a custom Unity-based engine to calculate lighting effects through generative algorithms in real-time. By leveraging an Oak-D AI camera to capture the spatial displacement of the audience, these movements are transformed into the computational soul of the algorithm. Through a DMX system, it provides independent control over 9,275 RGB LEDs, delivering exceptionally refined visual dynamics.
Key Technologies: Oak-D AI camera, Unity engine, Generative algorithms, Real-time motion tracking. - Design Challenge
- The core challenge was floating engineering in outdoor waters, requiring precise buoyancy and gravity calculations. Additionally, high humidity in outdoor environments posed strict requirements for the sealing, heat dissipation, and operational stability of the electronic systems. The design's key innovation lies in harnessing water reflections as an integral part of the visual composition, turning them into an essential extended interface.
- Research
- As technology advances, many traditional cultures are gradually losing their connection with modern life. We aim to utilize digital methodologies to re-envision the "Beehive Fireworks" ritual, transforming its explosive energy into a serene experience. By integrating AI vision sensors and generative algorithms, the project translates human presence into intricate light dynamics, guiding viewers from passive observation to active participation to reawaken a profound sense of cultural identity.
- Inspiration
- The Beehive Fireworks is a unique ritual in Tainan, Taiwan, symbolizing purification. The concept transforms its fervor into a serene ritual. By day, the form captures the speed of historical trade, mimicking the splash of a merchant vessel. At night, the work uses water reflections to create the symmetrical top-down view of actual Beehive Fireworks. Through natural ripples, the design authentically recreates their erratic, crisscrossing dynamism.
- Project Duration
- The project was officially exhibited at the 2026 Yuejin Lantern Festival in Tainan, Taiwan.
- Operation Flow
- The installation senses the audience through shoreside cameras. By subtly translating their posture into the dynamic rhythm of beehive firecrackers, it recreates the temporal experience of the ritual. This mechanism turns presence into visual momentum, allowing engagement to define the ebb and flow of time and light.
