14 DAY TRIAL // Unnumbered Sparks is an amazing interactive sculpture in Vancouver, Canada, that was created by artists Janet Echelman and Aaron Koblin for TED's 30th anniversary.
According to Inhabitat, the 745-foot (227-meter) hanging sculpture was installed just outside the entrance to TED, suspended to the Vancouver Convention Centre and the Fairmont Waterfront hotel. It resembles a fishnet, but the big difference is that Echelman's creation is brightly colored and installed overhead.
The sculpture has basically become a social place, as people gather underneath it and interact with this incredible work of art by means of their smartphones. The airy, delicate canvas changes its movement and color in real time based on visitors' commands.
The vaporous piece truly comes to life at night, as it turns into a stunning visual artwork controlled by the crowd, with a rainbow-like palette of colors and tones that seem to float high in the air.
The playful interactive artwork hung in the city of Vancouver between March 15-22, 2014, and allowed people to choreograph light on the sculpture and play with the sky using small movements on their smartphones or tablets.
The creators of this massive sculpture have proved that art and technology can perfectly merge to bring into being amazing pieces of public art.
