As Sean dealt with all the programming operations of the sensors for the lights and sound, Corbin adapted the footage that we were recording in the space during the install into something unrecognisable and extremely atmospheric and mesmerising.
Ed was busy attaching all the lights to the columns, inflating the balloons and positioning the speakers.
Once Mags had cut the aluminium rods and I had cut the fabric, we wrapped double sided carpet tape around the rods and then rolled the top of the fabric around the rod, creating the horizontal pole from which the fabric hung.
Rob and Jack made little sandbags which acted as weights to prevent the balloons from floating up to the ceiling. These were attached to the corners at the bottom of the lengths of fabric by eyelets that had been punched into the fabric.
The balloons were inflated with helium and between us we managed to create suspended planes from the fabric.
It all came together in the last hour when we collectively decided on the volume levels, the fine tuning of the lights and the positioning of the planes.
This entire process, and throughout the Late Night event, a webcam filmed what we were up to and live streamed to view online.
The exhibition will be open to the public between Monday - Friday, 10am - 5pm. The exhibition runs until Friday 22nd May 2015
