LuoXin and I partnered up to explorer a subject of our choosing during six weeks. Due to our shared love of nature we chose this subject. I suggested making a project about fish communication which is something rarely known. We gauged this idea with our peers and teachers and upon hearing their excitement we knew we were in the right direction.

Our thought behind this project is to expose the world to the unheard world of fish and let them experience ocean life in a way unlike any other. Turning this idea into something physical proved to be very challenging but after much deliberation we decided on building an art installation involving a digital school of fish which reacts to the live recordings of real fish.

I took it upon myself to design this installation and create a visual mock up of what both the installation as well as the animation of this project would look like. Since there was little time to this project we were never able to realize it further than these visuals. Check out the visualizations below.
