The obliteration room
"The obliteration room" by Yayoi Kusama offers a whitewashed home interior as a blank canvas for children visiting the museum to cover with colorful dots. It’s a joyful exercise in participatory art. Visitors leave their traces on the space. Their experience of the exhibit becomes manifest in the exhibit. And through the innocent randomness of children’s choices, a pleasurable kind of order emerges. The impulses to cover and to cluster — to cover and conquer a new white space or to cluster around a social crowd of others — make the distribution playful and human.
How to bring real clouds into being
Artist Berndnaut Smilde carefully controls the humidity and temperature in galleries to bring real clouds into being for a few minutes. Amazingly beauty.

I still doubt if the voices were recorded live, but awkward and fun anyway.
House of The Rising Sun - Musical Tesla Coils - YouTube
House of The Rising Sun played on Steve Caton's and Eric Goodchild's Musical Tesla Coils.
A Tesla Coil is a special type of transformer invented by Nikola Tesla that is able to generating extremely large voltages using a phenomenon known as electrical resonance. Each coil in this video is capable of generating a 13 foot spark. This equates to about 500,000 volts of electricity.
By modulating the number of sparks that emit from the coil each second, different tones can be produced by the coils.

Archifon, a whole chapel turned into a laser-controlled musical instrument
Prague-based projection mapping collective Macula have turned a Baroque church into a virtual music instrument that can be played with laser pointers.
The surface of the interior of the Olomouc Baroque chapel in the Czech Republic was mapped, with parts of the architecture becoming triggers for different sounds and visual effects.
The piece -- called Archifon I -- allows up to 10 visitors to interact with the mapped surface of the deconsecrated church. In addition to triggering sounds, the laser pointers also trigger projected animations, ranging from simply lighting up a particular statue or causing a rainy thunderstorm to accompany a dramatic soundscape.
