Rockpool – Air Giants
Free event, no need to book.
Air Giants are pleased to share Rockpool, a morphing and responsive installation of 2m tall soft robots. Their movement is organic and undulating; curling up to half their height, or stretching open in response to visitors. The four robotic creatures are made from fabric, valves, air and clever computing.
Rockpool is a multi-sensory experience which audiences are welcome to walk through and around. The creatures are tactile, inviting touches and squeezes. Each one has its own voice and once evening falls, the piece is internally illuminated. Everything shifts and changes in response to the people who come to visit.
