Playmodes is an audiovisual research group whose members are Eduard Frigola, Eduard Llorens, Eloi Maduell and Santi Vilanova. Its projects combine aspects of design, art and engineering, with audiovisual instruments they construct using their own technology and a traditional craft approach. Their language is intended to consolidate space, light, sound and movement from multiple perspectives. Their immersive installations use light and sound, sculptural devices, kinetic inventions, audiovisual scenography and performances by instrumental players, exploring an abstract universe of visual music. Since 2013 their projects have been displayed in Barcelona (Sònar, MAC Festival, Llum BCN, Lapsus Festival, la Mercè), Girona (VAD Festival), Taüll, Madrid, Seville, Bilbao, Gijón, Lanzarote (VI Bienal de Arte), Prague (Signal Festival), Las Vegas (LIB Festival), Houston, Karlsruhe, Metz, Bristol, Copenhagen, Chartres, Lyon and Macau, and at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro.
