Futuretro Art

Futuretro [pronounced future-retro] is the pseudonym of interactive light sculpture artist Jamie Barrett. It symbolises an equilibrium between the future and the past, flowing harmoniously in the present moment.

Designed to aid relaxation, these sound responsive light sculptures enrich their environment and refresh the mind.

The forms of the pieces are based on sacred geometry, tessellation and fractal patterns found in nature that have been proven to have a calming effect. These interactive sculptures make beautiful focal points that induce tranquillity to enhance your surroundings and awaken your senses.

Only the highest quality, sustainable materials (solid wood and eco-resin) are used to handcraft these unique, geometric sculptures and each piece incorporates interactive coloured lighting.

The internal electronics have been created so these light sculptures can display a visual representation of the music they sense (via integrated precision microphones).
The concealed LEDs that project light across the sculptures change colour and brightness in relation to the pitch and volume of the sound that is sensed, to provide a hypnotic, audio-visual immersive experience.
