Roberto Pugliese's “Equilibrium Variant” was honoured with a Honorary Mention at the Prix Ars Electronica 2013, category Digital Musics & Sound Art.
_Equilibrium Variant_ is intended to explore the occurrence of the Larsen effect (also known as feedback) through the use of mobile devices in three-dimensional space. The distinctive screech of the Larsen effect typically occurs when a microphone catches the sound emitted by a speaker.
