Limbo Cocoon from aerosoap on Vimeo.
With our Limbo Cocoon we created a multisensory interface that allows light and sound to be influenced by touch. This viscoelastic synthesizer made of electroconductive slime with a special formula explores the boundaries between static and process, connection and dissolution, pressure and tension, attraction and repulsion, phobia and philia, not only electrotechnically and physically, but also in the context of its staging.

About the Düsseldorf-based design lab:
We design communication media that speak a universal and emotional language: With the expressiveness of physical processes, we make information visible, experiential and tangible for the viewer.
Aerosoap is an interdisciplinary creative laboratory, founded by Thomas Wirtz and Frédéric Wiegand, which realises projects at the intersection of art, design and science
We use the design potential of physical processes to develop order-oriented and cross-media staging for corporate, editorial, exhibit and motion design.
This results in controllable machines, kinetic installations or interactive objects of various kinds. The aim is to transform messages into tangible experiences that leave a lasting impression on the viewer.
In addition, we convey our experimental design strategies within the framework of teaching and research at various universities, as well as workshops or live experiences at trade fairs, events and congresses.
