Check-Point

The Hungarian designers from Studio Nomad are multi-talented individuals with experience in architecture. The studio’s name is a reflection of the versatility of their creative endeavors – making everything from small objects to sizeable spatial installations and interventions.

At this year’s Design Week, in the Kapana quarter, they’ll present the interactive sound installation Check-Point. The installation consists of a network of gates, which can be rearranged randomly in order to create new routes. Each gate is equipped with a sensor, which activates a beeping sound every time someone walks through. The simultaneous activation of several gates might combine into a melody. The experiment encourages the choice of nontraditional urban routes, in combination with the use of commonly accepted navigational structures such as doors etc.

With the support of the Balassi Institute, The Hungarian Cultural Institute in Sofia.
