Fever: Musical Arches

Fever Originals commissioned us to create an interactive installation for their Dopamine Land experiences in the UK and Australia - immersive, multi-sensory events designed to be enjoyed by visitors of all ages. They were looking for a playful, welcoming feature to build anticipation as guests entered the space. We designed and built Musical Arches, a series of brightly coloured, glowing archways that emit chimes triggered as someone walks through them. Each arch plays a different note, and together they create a harmonious major-key arpeggio as visitors progress through the sequence.

Featuring integrated, multi-layered LED lighting and individual speakers in each arch, this installation created a dynamic audio-visual effect whilst simultaneously acting as a spectacle for others in the room. For the Australian edition, we adapted the system to trigger only when approached from one direction. Using our OSCHII hardware, we processed inputs from two pairs of light-gate sensors at each doorway, activating the lighting and sound effects only when specific entry conditions were met.
