Dubai Mall launches Melodies of the Village attraction

Melodies of The Village at The Dubai Mall

The Dubai Mall has introduced a brand-new spectacle called Melodies of the Village, a state-of-the-art LED audio-visual system.

The new art installation is situation in The Village, the mall’s dedicated denim district.

Melodies of the Village features LED lights with a musical system that responds to touch. The display is accompanied by bird song and music.

The sound effects created by touch, evoke bird calls from native and migrating species in the Arabian Peninsula.

This installation marks the collaboration of artists, architects, engineers and technological disciplines from across the world.

The composers have selected melodic and symbolic bird songs of the region including the call of the Peregrine Falcon, African desert warbler and Arabian babbler.

Visitors can interweave between 30 touch sensitive LED lights with sound systems. People can create their own music and admire the melodic compositions and light displays.

It also includes a dream mode that plays a series of ‘remembered’ melodies when the 96 touch points are not activated.
