Space Invaders 2008is an graphics installation with 176 lamps ( each with its own lampshade trend ) advert in a 1,600 feet - square drape . They ’re all wired up to a system with a camera , turn them into a low - res video display that reacts dramatically to passers - by , as you’re able to see above , or to medicine , as you’re able to see after the jump .
As well as surprising nearby walkers , the installation can also be snarf up to an audio generator , turning it into one mahoosive music visualizer , and reminding us of the light curtains U2 had on stage during the Vertigo tour .
Rainer Kehres , Sebastian Hungerer and Friedemann Wolpert designed and build the display , and if you ’re in Karlsruhe , Germany , you’re able to see it at the ZKM Center for Art & Media until February 13 . [ CommonlightsviaTechnabob ]
