"Intricate ceiling visuals become sounds at the The Hollows art opening in Brooklyn, thanks to an experimental electronic music device known as the Resonance Reader. Created by sound artist, Dylan j Marcus, the interactive piece aims to “accidently create music.” What looks like a mystic wand with black fringe employs custom-software and barcode readers to convert light emissions into midi, allowing it to read the black-and-white lines of the massive ceiling art piece by Brazilian artist, Talita Zaragoza. Marcus even suggests the "wand" has the potential to be learned as a sophisticated instrument...The artist and dancer Tania Leipold initiated a performance with the Resonance Reader piece by moving the device across Zaragoza’s ceiling work, creating haunting echoes and vibrations while gracefully using the lines of her body to extend to the ceiling with the new musical instrument."
Lines of her body?
