Moon Ride

In Moon Ride participants are invited to hook their own bikes up to bike trainers previously transformed into generators. Every step of their pedals generates electricity, illuminating a balloon light hovering in the night sky. The cyclists’ efforts determine the brightness of the balloon.

I think the voluntary component from the participants in the aim to light up the balloon is huge in Moon Ride, and with the participants there would not be much to see and experience.

I also like the goal itself, to light a specific balloon using human power, although they already have their standard street and home lights. The bigger picture is definitely the participation in creating light.
I enjoy how much fun this looks and how great of a time the participants seemed to have.

Moon Ride is more of a commentary participant involved installation, and people respond well to collaborative effort again like this.
