During Sónar Reykjavík 2016, a number of custom-made audio-reactive visualisations flickered on the majestic façade of Harpa Music Hall on the Reykjavík waterfront, illuminating both the interior and exterior of the building in time with the music. The 43 meter high geometrical steel frame, designed by Ólafur Elíasson, is adorned with a total of 714 LED lights.
