In Red Lens, movement in the vicinity of
the piece is sensed, turned into sound, and enhanced in a pleasing
and indifferent manner. Creating a space which encourages interaction
between participants as much as it does between participants and the
electronics, the piece trades in the fact that humans are captivated
by their own image when represented (however badly) in technological
systems. Taking its title from the rose-colored glasses which provide
the wearer with a deceptively cheery outlook, Red
Lens provides an audio radar image of the participants themselves
to produce an x-ray spectacle for the ears.
