Tapis Magique: A Choreomusical Interactive Carpet won this year's SXSW Innovation Award in the Student Innovation category. The project was also nominated as a finalist in the Music & Audio Innovation category.  

Developed in collaboration with dancer Loni Landon, Tapis Magique is a pressure-sensitive, knitted electronic textile carpet that generates three-dimensional sensor data based on body postures and gestures and drives an immersive sonic environment in real-time. The project demonstrates a creative interplay between art and technology,  highlighting the deep emotional link between contemporary textiles, dance, and music through the physical-digital connection.
