An AR Duet for Piano and Birdsong
Sarah Meyohas
POV
Sarah Meyohas’s Dawn Chorus and Speculations at Top of the Rock is a playful and technologically sophisticated AR experience where we get to observe the beautiful musical collaboration between holographic birds and a physical Yamaha Piano. The artist’s reimagining of a classical duet performance with the help of AR is joyful as well as innovative.

ABOUT
Dawn Chorus is a musical augmented reality experience that delights viewers with holographic birds fluttering around a physical player piano. The birds and watercolor visuals engulf the piano, triggering a series of musical notes only visible through an augmented reality headset. Speculations will be displayed on the 69th floor north terrace overlooking Central Park. These works, created through the manipulation of physical reflective surfaces and water, portray perspectival tunnels extending into infinity.
