• Daan Roosegaarde: Marbles at Jubilee Park

  Art

  13 January 2012 to 2 March 2012

  Jubilee Park E14 5AB[map]

  'Marbles', a new interactive artwork by Dutch artist and designer Daan Roosegaarde, will have its first public presentation in the UK at Canary Wharf's Jubilee Park. Forming this year's 'Winter Lights' installation to enliven the park's spaces during the dark winter months, eight large coloured moulded shapes will be arranged to interact with people walking through the landscape via sound, light and colour, transforming the park into an interactive environment of light and play. Each 'marble' contains sensors that can instinctively respond to human proximity or touch, triggering changes of colour and sound. The 'marbles' are also able to multiply these interactions between themselves, appearing to communicate with each other. As dusk falls in the park, it will appear to be animated by more than just those who are passing through. Is it the dawn of a new nature evolving from technological innovation.
