Aqueous

Talk about tangible computing. Aqueous is Zehao Chang's MFA thesis project. Water droplets fall from the ceiling into glass tubes - calibrated to ring over a span of two octaves. The water droplets themselves are computer controlled, via a system of actuators. The software for the system was developed in Processing.

This is the kind of installation work that probably has to be seen to be fully appreciated. The quicktime movie does a passable job of letting us peek into the experience, but I would really love to check this out in person.

What the site doesn't tell me is where it is. Since Mr. Chang is a student of Casey Reas, I'm going to assume it's in California.
