Low Rez vitrines on site in Washington DC. The alignment of vitrines from extends the lobby into the street and vice versa.

Hi Fi invites the public into a field of interactive poles, plays musical notes that respond to the touch, and creates a new kind of public musical instrument. The sound grove consists of a grid of touch sensitive stainless steel poles that emit a series of unique sound samples, composed by Erik Carlson. The networked poles relay sounds and draw the viewer/listener into the field, creating an urban instrument that can be physically inhabited.
