Amodal Suspension


is a large-scale interactive installation developed for the opening of the new Yamaguchi Center for Arts and Media (YCAM) in Japan. From the 1st to the 24th of November people can use this website to send short text messages to each other using a cell phone or web browser. However, rather than being sent directly, the messages will be encoded as unique sequences of flashes with 20 robotically-controlled searchlights, turning the sky around the YCAM Center into a giant communication switchboard.
