Designed  as a large 20 ft high urban electronic, interactive sculpture, featuring solar energy, electronics, light patterns, sound and reactionary effects combined with a sculptural form and Braille detailing.
    Utopia Rising is a boldly designed sculpture that presents an otherworldly quality. Most of it's exterior is comprised of a grayish silver granular finish set against a montage of illuminated abstracted segments and a slick black council with bronze detailing.
    The sculpture is designed to react to it's environment through interpreting sounds, shadows and light. The electronics in it's interior are designed to respond to their surroundings by creating sounds and light patterns.
    Utopia Rising is presented as an outdoor sculpture made to endure the elements and naturally age into the environment.
    The acrylic crystalline segments on the exterior are illuminated by numerous super bright LED's which are controlled by a number of PC boards inside the exhibit which are populated by CMOS, Linear, TTL, EEPROM and VMOS based circuits.
    In addition to the cost of the sculpture - it  will require a concrete foundation and anchor bolts. The final installation will require a moderately sized crane and licensed contractor for the on site mounting of the base unit and positioning of the columns. Utopia Rising  is $68,000.oo US plus shipping, crating and the above mentioned installation requirements. Please allow 40 weeks for fabrication and delivery.
     This sculpture is an example of alternative energy, sensory inputs and  reactionary effects in electronic systems, timing & randomizing theory, visual & wave length specific electromagnetic emissions, photons, sound synthesis, frequency & amplitude, & acoustics.
