Infunity Gate was based on an earlier small-scale work which explored the use of Moiré interference patterns in a desk lamp. For the large-scale version, I built custom software to design a unique pattern for a new larger-scale piece, and built interactive electronics using time-of-flight distance sensors to allow the viewer to control the pattern using intuitive hand gestures. This allowed a deeper sense of immersion as the viewer could navigate the interference pattern space, becoming immersed in the patterns that emerge.
