The Tree of Tenere

The Tree of Tenere was built in collaboration with a large group of artists and technologists. It is a light sculpture of more than 25,000 individually addressable LED’s.

I worked as a technical design consultant on the production and as the staff coordinator for the build and deployment.

My Responsibilities:

Prototyping and reviewing a custom electrical system

Prototyping and extensive testing of the individual leaf components as well as the combined multi-leaf unit “the twig”

Coordinating and working with numerous stake holders from a variety of backgrounds

Staffing the right team members to work together under significant environmental challenges and pressure and see the build through to completion
