PERISCOPISTA - Interactive mist installation

The magical interactive installation Periscopista, a giant, misty cloud above the lake that could be controlled by the festival crowd . By Thijs Biersteker and Amp.Amsterdam.

The visuals morphed according to the movements, recorded by motion capture cameras, of festivalgoers; the audio was an ambient bed that subtly changed as crowd noise picked up by several microphones increased and diminished. The effect was a trippy and psychedelic one that rewarded both passive observance and active engagement alike.
