As a permanent interactive installation, a fractured mosaic of light and color aesthetisizes the open-air waiting area of the city of Moss's (NO) main bus terminal, enlivening the space while offering suggestive information about the proximity of busses through dynamically changing light and color. |

Norment’s work with interactivity and architectonic structures enters the public sector with the commission of a permanent interactive art work for the city of Moss, Norway. In this work, Norment examines the metaphorical senses of an architectural site as a body in itself, extending her investigation of the sensational and psychological negotiation of bodies in environments. Extruding from the dark glass surface of a pedestrian overpass is a fractured mosaic of 350 RGB light tiles whose dynamically changing colors and patterns are determined by the movement of the city busses that pass underneath. Busses' locations along their route are tracked utilizing GPS technology. The locations are abstractly mapped onto the design such that the patterns change with the nearing time of departure of the approaching busses.
