"Fireplace" is an interactive lumino-kinetic device, designed to influence human psychology.

The project is composed of a mobile app that records user’s physical activities and of a domestic device that shows visual programs. The purpose of this device is to stimulate the user’s mind by light programs that match brain waves.


Flicker, colour combinations, light frequencies, intensity and patterns are used to influence user’s psychology and to get an hypnotic visual show.

This device experiments the possibilities of technological and human cognitive interaction.

Technologies: OpenFrameworks & Arduino.
