P U L S E – Move, Touch, Discover!

A playful, interactive experience where movement and touch create sound. Designed for kids, adults and curious minds, P U L S E invites you to play, experiment and discover the connections between our bodies, technology and sound.Inspired by the nerve endings that allow us to feel when our hair is moved or touched, this interactive installation by Neon Dance features a series of mini tiles, each containing a single artificial ‘hair’. Move or touch the hairs and they respond by producing sounds, creating a playful shared environment to explore.P U L S E is created by Neon Dance (Adrienne Hart) and technologist Dr Hemma Philamore (Bristol Robotics Lab), with composer Sebastian Reynolds. It is supported by Festival of Tomorrow and the British Science Association.The installation is hosted by Neon Dance Artistic Director Adrienne Hart and composer Sebastian Reynolds.More information at South East DanceWhat to expect
