测试水质的+ Pool灯光漂浮装置
Floating + Pool Light installation illuminates the East River to test and report on water quality

漂浮于曼哈顿东河上的LED灯光装置，能够根据水质来改变色彩。
LED lights on a plus-shaped installation floating on Manhattan's East River change colour based on the water quality conditions.
+ Pool灯光装置是一个公共设施，由当地公司PlayLab、Family New York、Floating Point，以及哥伦比亚大学Lamont-Doherty地球观测台共同研发。该装置能够跟踪报告码头附近水域的水质变化。
装置所收集到的数据能够显示在由Reaktor设计的仪表盘上，它能够报告当前的水质状况，并且告诉人们当前水质是否适合游泳。
+ Pool Light is a public installation executed by local studios PlayLab Inc, Family New York, Floating Point, and Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory. It tracks and reports the physical conditions of the water off Pier 17 in real-time.
Data collected is displayed on an online dashboard designed by Reaktor that reports whether or not the current water conditions are safe for swimming.
该雕塑装置的尺寸为50×50英尺（15×15米），其中为一系列的LED灯具。装置有着交叉的形态，同时也受到纽约城市水质的影响。
+ Pool灯光装置的设计者、PlayLab公司的合伙人Jeff Franklin说：“设计方案中，‘+’成为了积极的表征，这也代表了1972年美国清洁水法案颁布以来，人们对于水质的改善而付出的努力。”
“就概念而言，这也是包容性的象征，因为水域并不属于某个群体，它属于每个人。”
The drifting sculpture measures 50 by 50 feet (15 by 15 metres) and is constructed with a series of LED lights. Its cross-shape is influenced by the continued progress and efforts being made in New York City to improve water quality.
"The design recognises the "+" sign as a symbol of positivity, indicating the positive steps we have taken to improve water quality since the Clean Water Act of 1972," said Jeff Franklin, designer of + Pool Light and partner at PlayLab, Inc.
"Conceptually it is also a symbol of inclusivity in that the water that surrounds us belongs to no one single group, but to everyone."

该项目由Family New York 事务所的Dong-Ping Wong和Oana Stanescu、PlayLab事务所的Archie Lee Coates IV和 Jeffrey Franklin共同发起。几年来，设计师们一直希望能够在曼哈顿河里设计出带有自我过滤功能的漂浮游泳池，这样既具娱乐性，也具有教育意义。
同时，他们也成立了非盈利组织Friends of + Pool，主要接收安装灯光装置的委托，同时以无障碍且全方位沉浸的方式给公众带来教育意义。
Friends of + Pool的负责人Kara Meyer说道：“水质数据较为复杂，因此人们很难能够收集到具有意义的数据。因此我们想构思某种策略，让人们能够通过数据来直观地了解目前所发生的事。”
装置中设置有一系列传感器和液态警报系统，这主要用于测试和分析水样本中的盐分、毒素、有害病原体的含量。
The project was produced by Dong-Ping Wong and Oana Stanescu of Family New York, and Archie Lee Coates IV and Jeffrey Franklin of PlayLab, Inc. For several years, they have been working to design and install a floating, self-filtering swimming pool in a Manhattan river called + Pool to provide public, recreational space that is both fun and educational.
As part of the project, they established non-profit Friends of + Pool, which commissioned the light installation, to educate the public about water conditions in a way that is accessible and immersive.
"Water quality data is incredibly complex, so access to data means very little to everyday people," said Kara Meyer, managing director of Friends of + Pool. "We wanted to figure out a way to empower people with the data and engage them visually with what is happening in the water in front of them."
A series of sensors, part of a Fluidion Alert system, attach to the installation to take samples of the water, test and analyse them for levels of salinity, toxins and harmful pathogens.

Reaktor的仪表盘为漂浮装置带来动力。肠球菌是一种水流测试细菌，当这种细菌含量对于游泳活动来说处在安全的范围之内时，装置就能够发出蓝绿色的光线，但是如果水中的有害病原体含量较高时，灯光就会变成粉红的警告色。
灯光的亮度、频率、清晰度能够表示河水中的氧气值、浑浊度，以及PH水平。
Reaktor's dashboard powers the floating sculpture's lights. When levels of Enterococci, a bacteria Fluidion tests for, are safe for swimming + Pool Light glows teal, but if high levels of harmful pathogens are detected it turns pink, alerting the public that it isn't safe to enter the water.
The brightness, frequency and sharpness of the lights indicate the levels of oxygen, turbidity and pH present in the river.

雕塑也能够根据水流的方向而改变方向，当水流向北时顺时针移动，水流向南时逆时针移动。
漂浮 + Pool灯光装置将于2020年1月4日于纽约海港区展出。
The sculpture also changes its direction based off the flow of the current, moving clockwise when flowing north and counterclockwise when southbound.
+ Pool Light is on display in New York's Seaport District until 4 January 2020.

+ Pool灯光漂浮装置在其他建筑师的设计方案中同样具有发展的潜力，芬兰OOPEAA工作室设计了漂浮于水体之中的游泳池，而BIG建筑事务所则设计了一系列漂浮于海面上的村庄。
