Touchstone: Experience a Colors In Motion moment:
URBAN PULSE After a day of clankety-clank and hustle in the heart of the city, a jewel of beautiful light sparkles in the distance.
 
Moving closer... drawn by the calming colors... are they actually moving?
 
Yes, so slowly.
 
Entering, the space is filled with the reflecting color, 160 feet of slow evolution, from hot to soft, then cool, and back to warm, at once exciting and restful.
 
This is Colors In Motion at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. Christopher Graefe captures the Urban Pulse, compositing a 160' horizontal reach with Linda DeHart's colorful abstractions to illuminate the welcoming architecture of the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. Josh Hummel especially composes the soundscape.
 
Colors in Motion is excited to share with you the experience of our work in this venue: a nearly 2,000 square foot LED-illuminated stage filled with beauty in motion, an oasis of calm. Where would you like to have such an oasis in your life?
