SLINGSHOT Festival: Electronic Art Exhibition
As part of the SLINGSHOT Festival, Shannon Novak, a multi-media artist from New Zealand, will exhibit his interactive piece, String Section in the Lyndon House Arts Center’s West Gallery. Through visual graphics and smart-mobile technology, Novak presents an installation that transforms the walls of the gallery into a musical instrument. String Section incorporates image, sound and technology, creating an all-encompassing musical experience, imagine playing a piano on a wall.
