Marquee (cluster), 2014
56 neons, 20 transformers, 132 light bulbs, 8 sound transducers, sound amplifiers, microphones, computer, soundcard
This is the first work from Philippe Parreno’s ongoing series of marquees to consist of several, independently programmable elements. It is also the first to wrap around a corner. Guitar pick-ups amplify the electrical currents, creating an audible articulation of the pulsating lights.
