The Seats of the Senses, Responsive Art System. Seats are rife with meaning. This project is a self-organized system composed of six chairs. Each is equipped with a specially designed wireless digital interface, a series of sensors, a laser video projector and two speakers. The seats are programmed to interact with each other. Visitors are invited to move them around, in order to experience different sound compositions based on their relative positions in the exhibition space. When someone sits on a chair, a video projects from underneath the seat.

Each chair is programmed to offer a total of twelve different soundtracks and six video sequences. Chairs may be today’s most common piece of furniture, but these six were chosen for their unique personalities communicated through their idiosyncratic designs and styles. They are also all second-hand and worn, with their own history of wear and tear clearly evident, arousing different emotions and personal memories in the visitors.
