LUMIBOLIC is an interactive art installation which creates relationships between site and visitor through interactive lighting effects derived from electroluminescent wire and curved surfaces. Motion and sound sensors extend outward from the artwork and are triggered by activity in the surrounding environment. The data from these sensors stimulate the lit wire in the structure, creating dynamic light patterns and visual vibrations. These patterns inspired by the artwork of Op-Artists Bridget Riley and Victor Vasarely utilize several optical illusions to further experiences of visual effects.
