Drawn from the automobil and aviation industry the software visualizes the current of air caused by the body movements of a dancer and street artist. The translation of data turns into phantastic 3-dimensonal liquid objects and translucent materials that are in constant flux and transition.

The project provided the base for the interactive dance project and telecommunication exchange „Twirling Dust –Symmetrically“ that has been first performed between Beijing and Cologne 2012.

In cooperation with Lab D: Prof. Zil Lilas, KHM 2011
