Ocean of Light : Surface
a Squidsoup project

The Ocean of Light project explores the creative and immersive possibilities of light-based visualisation in physical space. It uses bespoke hardware to create dynamic, interactive and three-dimensional sculptures from light.

Surface is the first artwork to be exhibited using the Ocean of Light hardware. It uses minimal visuals and sound to evoke the essence of character and movement. Autonomous entities engage in a playful dance, negotiating the material properties of a fluid surface.

Pretty cool. Reminds me of various incarnations of the "Cubatron" I've seen at Burning Man over the years. Here's one vid:
