About Pulse Kifaa cha Taa
Pulse ni usanifu wa taa ulioundwa kwa ajili ya Tamasha la Taa la Taiwan la mwaka 2022 katika bustani ya kitaifa ya Weiwuying huko Kaohsiung. Usanifu huu unaonyesha hali za kihisia za wahamiaji wapya kupitia mwanga na sauti. Muundo huo umetengenezwa kwa mabomba ya chuma, huku wavu wa nyuzi ukiwa umefungwa kwenye kila bomba kati ya pete ya juu na msingi wenye mawimbi. Fito za taa za LED zinadhibitiwa kidijitali kufuata muziki wa nyuma uliotungwa mahususi kwa ajili ya kazi hii. Kibanda hicho huangazwa wakati wa machweo ya jua, na onyesho la taa la dakika tatu huwasilishwa kila baada ya dakika thelathini. Pulse ina upana wa mita 7, kina cha mita 7.8, na urefu wa mita 5.8.

- 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.

- 2021.10 Design Proposal
