Here is documentation of our interactive sound sculpture, Hive 2.0, which was exhibited at New Adventures In Sound Art recently!

Hive 2.0 is the second iteration of our interactive sound sculpture. The piece comprises of fifty speakers distributed over seven channels of audio. Using an Arduino Uno and Max 6 / Max For Live, six of the audio channels are interactive via ultrasonic sensors that detect the user’s proximity to the sculpture and manipulate audio playback.
