| Two strangers transmit their pulses from either side of a frame, creating an intimate moment. | ||
| Pulse Presence consists of two modular structures that make up a double sided frame. When touched, the membrane reacts by pulsing the light and beating to the person's pulse. A person touching the structure will feel vibrations from his/her own pulse as well as from the person on the opposite side. Pulse Presence creates an intimate moment, sharing heartbeats, exploring intimacy, and bringing to life our hidden frequencies. | ||
