HTC Straylight

A mobile app for controlling BAT Studio’s Straylight, an ambitious ‘Vortex Tunnel’ installation which featured at various UK music festivals during 2016.

Designed to celebrate the HTC M9 smartphone’s advanced 3D capabilities the mobile app created a mirror vortex on the mobiles display using live video feeds from both the front and back facing cameras. As the mobile phone rotated, so too did the giant steel vortex tunnel.
