A wall that runs through opening hours, with nobody in the booth on a Tuesday.
A wall, a dome or a facade that runs through opening hours, with nobody in the booth on a Tuesday afternoon.
The job
- It runs opening hours, every day, for a season, in front of people who came specifically to look at it.
- Somebody will stand in front of it for twenty minutes. That has to be rewarded rather than caught out.
- A curator, an invigilator or a duty manager opens up. There is no technician on site most days.
- It has to be a machine and a cable, not a rack and a contract.
- It is a public room, so the flashing has to come down and stay down.
- The wall shows the work. The controls do not.
What it replaces
A rendered film on a media player Nothing loops, because nothing is a file. There is no seam for a visitor to find, however long they stand there.
A media server on a rental contract $199 once, on a Mac you already own. There is nothing to return at the end of the season.
A technician on call for the run Answered once at open — the room, the feeling — and then left. That is 2 questions and a Start.
A dark wall between exhibitions A room that still has something in it while the next show is being hung, off whatever is playing in the space.

Which room to pick in the app
Open Luxaudica, and when it asks you the room, choose Broadcast/Social Media/Creator.
That is the whole setup. It asks 2 questions, you answer them, and it builds the rotation and runs the room. The full control surface is one shortcut away if you ever want it — how Operator works.
Scenes that fit
A few of the ones tagged for this room. Every one of them is generative — it reacts to what is actually playing, and it never loops.
The questions this room asks
- Somebody will watch it for twenty minutes. Will they see it repeat?
- No. Every scene is generated live from the audio in the room, so there is no loop point and no state it returns to. Twenty minutes is twenty minutes of frames that have not existed before.
- Who starts it in the morning?
- Whoever opens the room. It asks 2 questions — where you are, how it should feel — and then it runs until the Mac is shut down, or lands on the Finish in you set from the bar.
- What is it running on?
- macOS 15+ · Apple Silicon, and a screen or a projector. It taps whatever audio is already playing on that Mac — a sound piece, a playlist, a line in from the room — with no re-routing software in between. There is no server and no rack.
- Can the wall show the work while the controls stay out of sight?
- Yes. One key sends a clean picture — no panel, no chrome — to a second display, so the projector or the wall gets the work and the laptop keeps everything else.
- Does it call home?
- Nothing about the site does. The audio is analysed in memory on the Mac and is never transmitted; the only file it reaches is a recording someone starts there, which stays on that Mac. The app carries no advertising. What it does send is a report of how the app itself is used — which parts get opened, whether a command worked, how it performs; never the audio, the picture, or anything anyone typed. It is on by default and one switch in Settings turns it off, which is worth knowing for a machine you will not be standing in front of again. The full position is on the privacy page.
- Is it safe to leave running in a public room?
- Read the warning first: this app can produce fast, bright, flashing visuals, and our terms say so plainly. It also ships a Reduce flashing setting — a photosensitivity cap on the per-beat strobe — and macOS’s own Reduce Motion setting turns that cap on for you. Set it, then watch the real wall at the real size before the doors open.
Put it on the screen and watch it for ten minutes.
