GlowBall
ITP Projects - Softness of Things. Fall 2007
An interactive public art sculpture that needs simultaneous human voice input to “live”. Works as communication device and it aims
to encourage social interaction in public spaces.
The object is reacting to the participants, inflating and deflating based on the amount of input it receives. If you don't talk with it, he will "die/fall" but if it sees that you are talking through "him", he'll become bigger (inflating) and happier.
An inflate transparent ball with a labyrinth of tubes inside. The idea is to have at least 10 to 12 tubes and having some tubes that work as input and others that work as output of the sounds/words that are "created". Some of the tubes will be connected together, making the different sounds mix together. The idea of using a transparent ball is to bring some kind of visibility to the idea itself. You can see the different participants and their location but at the same time, since there is a labyrinth of tubes, you don't know to who you are talking.
Work in Progress
