Disco Dusche is an interactive sound environment where visitors create music together through movement. Guided by changing rules and experienced through headphones, the project turns dancing into a collaborative music game.

Disco Dusche is an interactive installation that transforms dancing into a collaborative process of music creation. Visitors step onto an interactive dance floor where movement directly influences the evolving composition. A computer-generated voice introduces changing instructions and musical conditions that continuously reshape the experience.
The installation unfolds as a shared music game. Participants listen through headphones while moving together inside the space, discovering how different actions affect rhythm, structure, and musical development. The work combines physical movement, listening, and coordination into a continuously shifting sonic environment.
The silent setup plays a central role in the experience. From the outside, the installation remains acoustically isolated, while inside the headphones visitors enter an immersive soundscape shaped collectively through movement and timing. The changing musical rules create different forms of collaboration and interaction over time.
We developed the project as an interactive sound environment focused on movement, participation, and real-time musical behavior. Our work included concept development, composition, sound design, and programming for the evolving rule-based music system.
