Sonapse 2022

An interactive light and sound installation. 

Participants lay on a vibrating platform under neuron inspired LED lights immersed in an ambisonic sound experience. 

The 3D mapped LEDs play animations synced with the spatial audio as well as the vibrations below. 

The installation may take many forms such as live shows, interactivity by way of sensors: EEG, heart rate, motion, audio reactive or simple quiet contemplation. 

Lead Artists: James Lucey, Hike Danakian, Jameson Hubbs

Galactic Meadow 2018


Immersed in light inspired by the cosmos, Galactic Meadow provided a place of commune on the playa for wanderers to dance or at quieter times relax and reflect.


Lead Artists: James Lucey, Cameron Nagai, Hike Danakian


Working on these projects below inspired me to bring my own pieces to the playa
