Site-specific sound installation for Korespondance 2016, modern dance and physical theare festival. Installation was placed in a baroque chateau's enterance hall by 18th century architect by Jan Santini Aichel. The space was scanned with two hidden cameras to create an interactive canvas reacting to movement of people passing by. An advanced evolving sound design/interactive composition was triggered by this canvas.
