Héctor Serrano设计的柯契拉大穹顶第1张图片

这是由Héctor Serrano设计的柯契拉大穹顶。在今年的加州柯契拉音乐节上，欢庆的人们可以在这座不断变色的大圆球的穹顶内领略到一场默声迪斯科。

这座大穹顶由Serrano工作室的建造伙伴——北欧化工组装，它整合了近1000块充气的PVC球体，球体内置了LED光源。“他们就像是一些沙滩皮球一样，”Serrano说。每一个LED灯都连着同一个计算机系统，它将会分程控制约50种光与色彩的变化组合。这个程序可以下载到智能手机或平板电脑内，于是控制它们变化的频率将会变得更简单。电线在穹顶的骨架边缘固定着每一个小球。Serrano说他最初仅仅想出租一个更小的结构，但是最终却做出了柯契尔现在拥有的这个大穹顶。

“它大约是我最初设想的四倍大”，他解释到，“我们不得不在中国定制这些小球以按时建成它们。”这个结构将会为了这个一年一度的音乐节保留两个月，然后在这个月底被拆除。Héctor Serrano现居于伦敦。他以前的作品包括一个看起来像计算机图标的扬声器，以及一系列动物头部样式的气球配饰。它的灵感来自于罗马万神殿穹顶，这个装置像是一座光之教堂，一个极具艺术化的部分，人们将会深深沉浸在它360度的独特光芒中。这个穹顶将会当人们置身其中时让人沉醉其中无法自拔，也会在远观时成为一尊大型雕塑。它由将近1000个带有LED灯的小球所组成，就像是一个个小像素点，为无限变幻与可能创造了大体量环境。

Revellers at this year's Coachella festival in California can visit a silent disco inside a dome of colour-changing balls by Spanish designer Héctor Serrano.Produced by Borealis， the installation arm of Serrano's studio， The Dome is built from nearly 1000 inflated PVC spheres with LED lights at their centres. "They're kind of like beach balls，" Serrano said.Each LED is connected to a computerised system， which relays a combination of around 50 different patterns of light and colour. The program can be downloaded to a smartphone or tablet， making it easy to alter the sequence.Cables fix each of the balls around the skeletal framework of the dome.Serrano says he originally planned to rent a much smaller structure， but ended up using a dome that Coachella already owned.

"It's four times bigger than our original proposal，" he explains. "We had to have the balls custom made in China to get them ready in time."The structure was installed for the two weekends of the annual music festival and will be dismantled later this month.

Héctor Serrano is based in London. Past projects by the designer include a speaker designed to look like a computer icon and a set of accessories for turning balloons into animal heads.Inspired by the Pantheon dome in Rome， the installation resemblance a cathedral of light， an art piece where the visitor is immerse in a 360º unique experience completely surround with light. The dome works as immersive environments when inside and as large scale sculpture when view from outside. The dome is made out of nearly 1000 spheres and LEDs that are used as a pixel， creating a volumetric environment with infinite patterns and possibilities.
