X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html: <h4>Interference is the first interactive art
  installation produced by the AVAST team. It is an experiment in the physic
 al properties of light and sound.</h4><p><em>Interference</em> is the first
  interactive art installation produced by the AVAST team. There will be a s
 hort opening reception and demonstration of the installation on <strong>Mon
 day\, June 4\, at 11:00am.</strong></p><p>AVAST is a group of four UBC visu
 al arts and music students working under the direction of Professors <stron
 g>Bob Pritchard</strong> and<strong>Richard Prince</strong> to create a ser
 ies of interactive audio/visual installations.</p><p><em>Interference</em> 
 is an experiment in the physical properties of light and sound. Placed some
 what inconspicuously against two walls\, the installation will immediately 
 detect any passers-by who happen into its sphere\, allowing them to directl
 y interact with the piece.</p><p>Each segment the viewers activate on eithe
 r side of the installation represents a breakdown of a pure form of the cor
 responding medium. Although we perceive it as a unified whole\, white light
  is a combination of all colours. Similarly\, a seemingly natural sound is 
 a combination of many frequencies.</p><p>The installation provides a space 
 in which viewers are able to engage with the work with their own bodies. Th
 eir movement through the gap between the two components triggers the corres
 ponding audio and visual events\, and as a result\, allows the participant 
 to fully connect with the work. Movement\, the physicality of a space\, ges
 ticulation\, and the human senses can combine to create endlessly unique co
 mpositions.</p><p>The two sides of the installation are also dynamically li
 nked. As viewers progress along one side\, the opposite side reacts and cha
 nges\, allowing for the creation of a deeper and more complicated audio/vis
 ual experience. Viewers can only truly enjoy the installation when they not
  only interrupt their own daily movement patterns\, but when they ask anoth
 er person to interrupt theirs as well.</p><p>The AVAST project is supported
  by the UBC 2012 Arts Undergraduate Research Award.</p>
