For MDLBeastâs Soundstorm festival, I had the exciting opportunity to create Synesthesia, an interactive installation that explores the harmony between sound and color.
This immersive piece transformed auditory elements into visual experiences, where each sound triggered a corresponding light and color shift, allowing audiences to engage with music in a completely new way. Through a series of interactive buttons, visitors could play with the installation, experiencing a fusion of sensory perception that blurred the lines between hearing and seeing.
Synesthesia was developed in collaboration with the WondeFn Collective, under the direction of Khalid Nadhirah, with contributions from Abdullah Alghashim, Anas Iskander, Ziyad Alsayigh, and Ammar Nadhirah, and executed by Khalid and Ziyad Afif.
This installation redefined the connection between light and sound, inviting the audience to step into a world where music becomes color, and perception becomes an interactive experience.
