Cotton Candy Universe

Cotton Candy Universe is a cotton candy spinning performance at the intersection of food, design, performance and technology. It is the second iteration of Cotton Candy Theremin, which remixes the interface of making cotton candy by transforming it into a multi-sensory orchestration of sight, sound, smell, touch and taste. By spinning a cotton candy cone over wisps of candy floss, guests trigger sounds and visuals that create an immersive environment inside a 70 ft. planetarium dome, revealing the interplay between human and digital technology.

Debuted at Panorama Music Festival during the summer of 2016 as part of The Lab @ Panorama.
