The New Buzz at Bleecker Street

The New Buzz at Bleecker Street

The subway has gone disco thanks to a new hallucinatory lighting installation by New Mexico-born  

Villareal found inspiration for his lighting randomization from British mathematician John Horton Conway’s Game of Life. Life is a cellular automaton in which a two-dimensional grid of cells interacting determines their survival, reproduction, and death. The unpredictable flashing and morphing of the LEDs echo the erratic ever-changing nature of the city itself and, perchance, the irregular possibility of your train showing up on time.
