KMA (Kit Monkman and Tom Wexler) is a UK based digital media design team, their main aims their work promotes conveys the use of movement, function, play and interaction within a public space. Their main media for achieving these aims is the use of lighting that reacts with pedestrian movement. The light projected onto the floor often links strangers together with strands of light. The installations are modeled upon natural events such as swarm and large masses of animals, creating a moving digital sculpture. Although none of this could be achieved without the interaction and activity within the public spaces. KMA’s most well known instillation was in London’s Trafalgar Square. The instillation known as Flock took place in February 2007 transforming the 625 meter squared space into a ballet stage. The instillation projected ballet dancers on to the ground that would dance on the spot. The instillation was a great success as many of the pedestrians would dance with the ballet dancers throughout Trafalgar Square.
