Breathless

The installation consists of three interactive light objects. Two of them are directly connected to an RSS news feed, which keeps track of around 50 newspapers. Its program is set up to search words and notions related to the concepts of fear and desire – motors of human behaviour.
The third object is wirelessly connected to the street and the number of its diode lines illuminated depends on the levels of noise pollution. Inside each of objects is an anemometer. The viewers can blow on the device transforming the work with their breath, influencing the lighting and mutating the words into meaningless marks.
