During the 'Lemniscate Cascade' #workshop, Evelina Domnitch & Dmitry Gelfand, will reveal how light can stir a liquid crystal solution and induce a state of life-like self-organisation.
Different wavelengths and intensities of light will be used to activate a variety of fluid dynamic phenomena. Further experiments will be conducted in order to synchronously sonify these emerging interactions.
