Polynode XI is an audiovisual instrument that transforms light and sound into a dynamic experience. The virtual nodes generate patterns that change over time. 

By immersing viewers in a dynamic sensory experience, the installation bridges the intangible nature of digital systems with the physicality of shared space, shaping how we perceive space and time, often beyond conscious awareness. 

The installation envisions a harmonious future between humans and technology, exploring how they coexist and might become a next nature.

Lumus Instruments | active since 2018
Lumus Instruments is an Amsterdam-based studio focusing on the physical manifestations of computational technology through light, sound, and structural elements. Led by Timo Lejeune (b. 1991, Maastricht) and Julius Oosting (b. 1995 Arnhem), their multidisciplinary approach blends design, architecture, and engineering. Through repeating experiments, they refine digital systems while investigating their impact on how we perceive and interact with space and time. 

Through the synergy of these design principles, they challenge what it means to be human in this digital age. Their work has been exhibited across festivals, clubs, and exhibitions across various disciplines, including ArtClub Houston, FIBER festival, Dutch Design Week, Monopol Berlin, and Amsterdam Dance Event.
