french interactive design agency wecomeinpeace‘s ‘njörd’ installation synchronizes sound, light, and feathers to create fascinating aerial ballet. designed for lyon’s festival of lights, it features 26 plexiglass monoliths, each containing LEDs, fan, and hundreds of feathers. influenced by njörd, the scandinavian god of wind, the city hall location transforms into a mythological, modern space. an immersive soundtrack accompanies the pieces as they change through various patterns.
