Trick i-ey’e

In 2008 New Zealand Digital artist Rachael Linton produced the short film Sound Vision. Sound Vision explores the physical and psychological effects of colour, light and sound vibration and how they may be used as a means of therapy through film. The concept was realised and honed during Linton’s Master of Design thesis in Digital Media, 2009. At Massey University in Wellington Linton conducted many design experiments to deduce imagery that may stimulate or soothe the response within the viewer. Cymatics, twirling dancers, flickering lights and writhing colours were united with harmonising vocal choirs and resonant sounds.

Visitors to Trick i-ey’e are encouraged to bring their video camera or phone to experience Linton’s kinetic artworks in an altered way through the camera lens.
