El Macroscopio is an immersive fulldome installation where audiences become composers, altering a real-time physics system to blur the line between galactic and microscopic structures.

Project Description

El Macroscopio (The Macroscope) is a fulldome immersive interactive installation, whose concept is to generate a dichotomy of scales. Through a sensor installed in a device worn by whoever interacts with the work, it will be possible to alter with their hands (zooming in, rotating, moving away and manipulating), a real-time physics system that blurs the line between galactic and microscopic structures. In this way, depending on how people interact, the dome will go from being a telescope with a field of view of light years, to a microscope looking at cells within an
organism. By interacting with the work, the audience acts as a kind of composer, altering both the sound and the visuals creating unique experiences for him or herself and the other viewers on site.
