Fruit Machine — A synesthetic experience

Description

We were commissioned by Cinekid Medialab to create a playful and visually captivating installation for their festival.

Impression

Fruit machine is a synesthetic experience that opens up a world of sounds and shapes hidden within fruits. The installation encourages exploration and creativity. It’s a tactile experience with a digital layer that estranges visitors from their usual reality; sparking the imagination and the urge to explore.

As fruits are placed upon the installation, sounds and shapes emerge. Changing the placement changes the sound. Every fruit possesses its own distinct soundscape that’s extracted through the machine. Users are invited to figure this out in a playful interactive experience, ultimately crafting their own favourite blend.

The seemingly abstract shapes show the activity at the different stations and blends the shapes where sounds overlap each other.
