'Archifon is a big interactive virtual musical instrument originally made for the Olomouc Baroque de-baptized chapel. Architectonical objects are re-interpreted by virtual visual elements via projection and sound. It is possible by mapping the virtual surface on the chapel’s interior.

Up to ten visitors at a time can interact with the Archifon through the laser pointers. By pointing on any of more than 100 elements different audiovisual actions are initiated.'

Old chapel converted into virtual musical instrument.

I want to play! The art installation, Archifon I, is the work of projection mapping team Macula. They converted the Olomouc Baroque chapel in the Czech Republic into a giant musical instrument. Visitors "play" the chapel by aiming laser pointers at different structures, which trigger different sounds.

The audio and Max/MSP programming was done by Tomaš Dvořák and the real-time tracking was developed by Dan Gregor. The piece was erected for the opening ceremony of the PAF film and animation festival in Olomouc in December 2011.
