Description
Pulse Tank is
an Interactive installation where the heart rates
of members of
the public
are detected by sensors and converted into water
waves in a ripple tank. A light show is created
by the resulting waves and their interaction. To
participate, insert your finger into one of the
four cylinders on the side of the tank or put your
hands flat on the front panel; the computer will
detect your pulse and activate a solenoid which
will hammer your heart rate onto the tank.
