DOMESTAR

Designed by artists, software engineers, musicians and makers, DomeStar is an immersive, collaborative light, art, and sound installation from NYC Resistor and members of the NYC Burner community. Since 2012, the enormous geodesic dome, covered in 6400 individually controlled LEDs has traveled the country, making stops at maker events, festivals and gatherings including Burning Man, Disorient Country Club, PEX Summer Festival, World Maker Faire, and the Open Hardware Summit. DomeStar is magical and transportive, offering a unique experience that is at once isolated from and deeply connected to the world around it, offering those who enter it an all-consuming experience of dazzling light, otherworldly sound, and shared experience. It’s simultaneously soothing and energizing, providing both an individual and communal experience. It is a place to dance, a place to find community, or a place to lie down and contemplate.
