Gravitas

As part of the The Paranormal Unicorn team I was invited to the realization of this unique and exciting concept as hard- and softwaredesigner.

Coming from an idea developed with the Red Bull Skydive Team and Camo&Crooked we were asked to build a device that would need to have several functionalities. The progress involved finding a way to have a predefined light choreography running autonomously on custom-built portable devices that run the wingsuit´s built-in Led strips. On top of that the Skydive team needed to retrigger the light animation at any point before jumping and hear the soundtrack in the air to furthermore accomplish the extraordinary dangerous task of flying choreographed flight patterns exactly timed to the lighting and soundtrack. The most challenging part for the athletes was the astonishing fact that it all had to be performed at night as well.
