Entwined Controller

This app allows you to control Entwined, the interactive light installation by Charles Gadeken - or to control the component trees and shrubs of Entwined as they spread across the world. To get started after downloading, connect your device to the WiFi network broadcast by the sculpture, then open the app to get started.

Entwined Meadow is an installation by Charles Gadeken. The exhibit brings the viewer to a whimsical land where visitors explore paths and sit under one of three metal sculpted trees. The trees range from 12 to 20 feet tall with colorful and ever-changing illuminated canopies as large as 30 feet wide. In addition to the trees, flower cluster sculptures composed of 2,000 LED lights at varying heights invite a dynamic and dazzling experience filled with radiating light and color. The lighting effects are inspired by nature and build a sense of magic and wonder: sensations such as raindrops, lightning, thunderstorms, windblown grass and leaves, ripples on a pond are translated through color and duration.

The installation opened on December 10th in Golden Gate Park’s Peacock Meadow near the Conservatory of Flowers and closed (for now!) on April 6th.
