Robotic lights recreate the car's path along Mulholland Drive
2004 Mullholland drive
Is a light installation that translates the movement across a topology as two beams of light. Instead of direct human interaction, the work takes the sensed data (tilt, sound, and GPS) of traversing an environment and recreates the experience through... Show More

Mulholland Drive documentation video
This collaborative project, carried out as a team with Scott Hessels and Michael Chu, was a prototype we created for a UCLA course on database design. We drove along the legendary Mulholland Drive in a car equipped with several sensors and translated the vectors into two robotic lights that replicated the route in a university gymnasium, which we filled with smoke to make the headlight beams visible.
