Nocturnal Response
A German poem interplays with Europe's largest public sensor artwork. Its pillars interact with human motion and touch, breathe light and sound in response to people...
"Sensor Valley" was created by Studio Daan Roosegaarde in the Netherlands. They also gave permission to use their video material.
"Safari" is written and spoken by Eva Gagel, who I heard at her poetry reading in Berlin. A horizontally moving textline with my English translation completes this poetic video minute. (1'28")
