CityBeat is built to be a standalone or window installation that can be displayed in a variety of fashions suited to a space's needs. It allows strangers to connect with each other in passing by prompting them to press their hands against a point, often a window, and to follow the light they generate as it travels into a giant beating heart. When two people connect at the same time, the heart beats stronger and brighter, eventually filling the whole space with its unique light.
