“Starting as a week-long workshop with students from the Art Institute of New York, The Principals instructed students in the construction of a reactive architectural environment that opened to the public during New York Design Week, May 19-21. Using a series of sensor-controlled motors and a unique system designed by The Principals, students learned to create an interactive environment which responds to visitors’ presence. Cosmic Quilt is composed of over 3000 pieces that work together to create fluid motion within an 8ft x 16ft x 12ft tall structure.”
