A mirrored plane of water interacts with the viewer as well as the quality of light and air in the room. The walls reflect light which responds to the actions within the space. The presence of the viewer is recorded by a motion sensor and translated to a paddle action in the tank. Vibrations of footsteps on the floor create patterns of light on the walls and ceiling.
