LED Playback System

For the second edition of Doug Aitken's 3 Modern Figures (don't forget to breathe), Doug Aitken Workshop and NightLightLabs came to polygonfuture for the electronics and playback. I built the system time-synced audio and LED content delivery where each sculpture can run on its own or in unison with its siblings.
