About the art: Cosmic System is an interactive installation where visitors interact with sound and visuals. Projected on the walls of the Space Cloud, we see groups of swarming particles. By moving in front of a special device, we can manipulate attract/repel gravitational forces creating a visual relationship between the sound and the particles’ motion. It is an interactive system at the borderline between an exploratory sound and vision instrument, an art installation, and a gaming experience. Each hour, dancers from Ballet Taos will perform within Cosmic System.
