Audience action

Visitors approach and move around the shrine surface.

System response

Phone screens synchronize in waves, shifting timing, light, and ritual behavior in response to presence.

  • Build a durable installation grammar around repeated phones.
  • Test how synchronized light, sound, and ritual behavior read in space.
