The installation Flash Light Orchestra presents an interactive and collaborative approach to contemporary light and sound art. Using the orchestra as a metaphor to essential needs important for human existance and well-being, the installation promotes collaborative experiences open for all. By using interactive technology and light, the installation presents a new approach to orchestra music performance and real-time organisation of sound. A playful exploration of light, sound, space and technology. Visitors interact with the installation, and becomes musicians in this unique orchestra, by using the flashlight function of their smartphones as instrument interfaces. An open participatory sound art exhibition, which visitors regardless their musical backgrounds orchestrates and arranges into multilayered orchestra music compositions. The Flash Light Orchestra builds further on the previous interactive sound art installations created by the artist, which have been exhibited all around the world. An interactive light and sound art installation which expands our senses, creativity and communication, important factors which defines us as humans.
