Sound Forest is a multisensory installation and a large-scale Digital Musical Instrument (DMI) incorporating sound, haptic feedback and colored lights. Five light-emitting interactive strings, vibrating haptic platforms and speakers are used to provide multisensory feedback and musical content. The installation was inaugurated in 2017 and is open for visitors at the Museum of Performing Arts at least until 2026.
