Drew Seskunas, co-founder of the architecture firm that debuted the installation believes “There are so many amazing processes happening in our bodies we are either unaware of or take for granted." By combining hundreds of aluminum electricity-conducting rods to a sensor grid, the artists behind 'Aural Planes' were able to create an [interactive sound and light sculpture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feel-the-sound) that responds to your body's natural energy. When a person touches the thin rods, the electricity charges that are present travel up the rod, activating different sounds and colors depending on the strength of the charge. The intention of the installment was to connect people more intimately to their surroundings, forges deeper connections between our bodies and our environment. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Interactive Art:** Opportunity to create immersive art experiences that engage and interact with viewers. - **Sensor Technology:** Incorporating sensors into art installations for a personalized and dynamic experience. - **Bodily Interaction:** Exploring the relationship between human bodies and objects through interactive art. ### Who This Affects Most - **Art and Design:** Artists and designers can utilize technology to create innovative and engaging installations. - **Experiential Marketing:** Brands can use interactive art installations to create memorable brand experiences and engage with consumers. - **Architecture and Interior Design:** Incorporating interactive art installations into architectural and interior design projects for enhanced user experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wonderous Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/your-psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Interactive Mountain Oracles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whispering-mountains.md) - [Sound-Interactive Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arborhythm.md) - [Immersive Light Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/psychoacoustic-light-ensemble.md) - [Urban Soundscape Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moment-installation.md) - [Water Movement Sculptural Instruments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inner-waves.md) - [Lightning-Inspired Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bright-light-shining.md) - [Kinetic Interaction Pavilions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transmutation-observatory.md) - [Thought-Provoking Interactive Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antibodies-installation.md)
