Rain Room

The Curve a inside room with rain
but a 3-D beam tracks you and moves the rain around you.



Check it out if in London.




[The best bit is watching what people do," says Ortkrass. "It's either totally crazy, or utterly banal, but never what we're expecting."

Behind the magic of each piece is a highly refined piece of technology. The Rain Room is controlled by a series of cameras that 3D-map the location of bodies on the plinth, translating this to a pixelated grid of 25cm x 25cm panels, each of which controls nine outlets – and a total of 2,500 litres of water, falling at a rate of 1,000 litres per minute, which is filtered, treated and recycled.]
