About
Apotheneum (place of divine elevation) is a visual, sonic, and haptic instrument intended to "transport" visitors through participatory immersion. Comprised of two nested chambers made of back-to-back LED nets, Apotheneum presents multiple canvases and an immersive sound system for collaborating visual and sound artists. Apotheneum's cubic antechamber envelops a cylindrical "inner sanctum" that opens to the sky. Within this chamber, a pressure-sensing "bed" offers multiple vantage points for the three primary senses to be engaged. Intended as a "slow" space, the light and sound art that Apotheneum will feature are designed to encourage pause and contemplation.
