Laws of Reflection

Laws of Reflection is an active listening experience that explores new technology for the spatialization of sound by pairing pan / tilt controls with a small ensemble of hyperdirectional speakers, which create tightly-focused beams of sound. The resulting sound projection system will allow sound to reflect off of objects within a given architectural space and illuminate different portions of the surrounding environment.
