Making music with lasers in an experimental project


Optonoise, a project started by Stan Lewry uses lasers, solar panels with intermediary materials and mechanisms to create unique music.

Having been demonstrated in the Tate Modern, this project combines science, art and music together. Lewry describes this as a collaborative project, open to working with other creatives from all sides.

Lasers, spinning disks, plastic beads, solar panels and even sugar crystals are used to create unusual effects on the eye and ear.
