DNA GENOME Domes . 2006

DNA GENOME Domes (2006)

Theme: Understanding how DNA works.

Singapore Science Centre. 




The Domes are representational of DNAs in our body. Lights flicker and sound will be emitted, activated by passersby.

 

The domes are placed at random places. Motion sensors are positioned around the area to detect movements of passerby. DNA is the biological make-up of a human being, and its important that its these feature that will activate the work. A motion sensor will trigger one or several domes at different places. Just like DNA, we have no control over the selection of the genes.

 

To illustrate that the motion activates the dome, the domes will flicker with lights to show that its active and the same time generate sounds that are very robotic. This is to simulate the idea of a robotic DNA.
