Galapagos Art Space
Summer 2008 saw the reopening of Galapagos, a former Williamsburg based performance venue that was ironically priced out of the neighborhood it helped establish. Finding a second life in a 102-year old, 10,000 square foot horse stable located in Dumbo, the club becomes New York City’s first LEED certified “green” cultural venue. Along with their not-for-profit fundraising activities, a rotating showcase of theater, dance, performance art, music, cinema, and literary events keep things fresh.

Physical Sequencer Translates Movement into Sounds
The Physical Sequencer from designer Giuseppe Guerriero merges the worlds of dance with music into a single act of a creation. The standing interface includes elements that respond to both movement and touch, translating these gestures into corresponding sounds that would be a welcome addition to your next rave. The system features 56 proximity sensors arranged throughout a 7′ x 8′ grid. It reminds us a little of a modern day take on Theremin, only for the slightly more hyperactive set.
