Raylights was conceived by Craig Newswanger and Resonance Studio. The sound-activated installation creates dynamic, radiant light patterns that are modulated by ambient sounds in the gallery and visitor interactions. In the following video, for example, you can hear the sounds from the nearby Resonance Studio installation, Entangled Attraction, in the background at The Exploratorium:
