The Lichtsuchende are small static robotic creatures, forming an interactive, digital, photo-kinetic sculpture, created by Dave Murray-Rust and Rocio von Jungefeld. Their movement is modelled after sunflowers turning to face the sun in their constant search for light. As well as consuming light, they send out beams of light to communicate with each other. Enter with a torch and engage with the robots, setting up cascades of movement and light and exchanging photonic information with the cyber-society.
