Look, i’m talking to you

Discover Spectrum, an immersive experience where your words and sounds transform into light waves and pulsations.

This installation explores the phenomenon of communication by revealing the path of sound vibrations: observe how your messages travel through the installation’s rings, transforming small gestures and invisible reverberations into an impressive visual effect.

Spectrum is a sensory exploration where you are invited to create unique dialogues using sound and light, with peers or strangers.

Each word spoken becomes a chance to illustrate and feel the impact of communication. Listen carefully, and you will see.

« We spend each day working to bring people together and make them think. With Spectrum, we wanted to take a closer look at communication. It’s incredible what you can communicate through simple sound waves! By promoting interaction in public spaces, we help change the way people perceive places. One evening, there was a family on one side and a homeless man on the other, and they were communicating using Spectrum. It’s truly in that moment that our project took on its full meaning! »
