Holiday Bells Grove Installation

Role : Back End Developer
Technologies : Python, LIBRosa, Max MSP, Touch Designer, Arduino 


During the summer of 2019 I worked as a developer with creative studio Red Paper Heart.  In this role I was responsible for building a series of prototypes and infrastructure that would lead to the completion of a larger set of installations known as the Wishing Forest.

As part of the process I developed a series of Music Information Retrieval Algorithms in order to prototype the user experience of the Whispering Wishes installation. 

For the Bell Groove Installation I developed a back end in Touch Designer that allowed multiple “Hanging Bells” to detect movement underneath and play music in response to participant interaction.
