Abstract

The Swayway is an audio/MIDI device inspired by the simple concept of the wind chime.This interactive sculpture translates its swaying motion, triggered by the user, into sound and light. Additionally, the motion of the reeds contributes to the visual aspect of the piece, converting the whole into a sensory and engaging experience.
