Kinetic Humor
Kinetic Humor | Ivo Schoofs works in the field of light and art. In the past they have put the Large Fire Tornado and the Large Pendulum Wave on the map as works of light art.
JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE A CHARACTER, DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE CHARACTER is a 21-metre high installation by this Eindhoven-based light artist. In this large, kinetically interactive light artwork, rotation changes into translation. Through the coloured light and the movement, new characters are created; a new Eindhoven visual language, which both alienates and connects. The repetitive, wonderful movement challenges the viewer to discover new structures each time.

This project is part of Roundabout Design, a permanent design route in the city centre of Eindhoven to inspire its visitors. This “Roundabout Design” should eventually become a connection between design-oriented institutions such as TAC, the Design Academy, the Philips Museum, the Kazerne, the Van Abbemuseum, the DesignHuis, the Schellensfabriek, the NRE site and the VDMA.
