untitled (after Dan Flavin) by Jonathan Nangle

Soundtrack and Eight Computer Controlled Lights (2013) ‘untitled (after Dan Flavin)’ draws influence from the American visual artist Dan Flavin, who was famous for creating sculptural light installations arranged in geometric patterns using a limited colour palette and commercially available fluorescent light fixtures. Commissioned by Dublin SoundLab.
