I visited a lecture of Daan Roosengaarde in Shanghai, he was showing his interactive art/products which are, very often also sustainable. Above all they are lot’s of fun and intriguing. Studio Roosegaarde developed for the Sustainable Dance Club in Rotterdam, The Netherlands a dancefloor that generates energy.
SUSTAINABLE DANCE FLOOR is an interactive floor which generates electricity through the act of dancing. The first dance floor created by Studio Roosegaarde uses mechanisms and embedded technologies to harvest energy.
Via interactive technologies a sensual and interactive environment is created in which dancers are engaged with the sustainable experience. The more energetic the dance the more energy created and lightlevels on. The color of the floor changes with the concentration of dancers.
Specifications:
