Playful experience
'You see me at night, by day you tell everyone about me. I come back looking differently than before. I sometimes leave you in the darkness. What am I?'
Dream was it?
As you approach the playful installation, you'll discover a mesmerizing display of weightless balls swirling around inside a large, transparent box. These vibrant spheres shift in color as they dance in response to your every move, reminding us of the power of our actions in shaping our dreams.
Like the dreams we hold dear, these weightless balls may seem intangible and fleeting at first glance, but as we engage with them, they start to take shape and form, becoming more real with every twist and turn.
The installation is a playful invitation to participate in the creation of our dreams, encouraging us to reach out and interact with the world around us to bring them to life. It reminds us that our dreams are fluid, constantly changing and evolving, just as the balls swirl and transform in response to our actions.
In the end, the playful installation leaves us with a sense of wonder and mystery, a reminder that the journey of realizing our dreams is just as important as the destination.
Iteration Process
Figuring out color changing
I used Photochromic dye with a paint medium and using Ultra Violet rays it changes from invisible to color.
Particle Flight
Thermocol balls had a excellent static property and ability to flight in small gasp of air
Gesture Control
I wanted to play with the gesture control for the speed and movement of the particles inside
I used Ultrasound Sensor to adjust the speed and LEAP Motion sensor to control the gesture.
Particle control explorations
These are clips from the experiments from Touch Designer
Mouse control
You can see the particles move around as you hover the mouse pointer across the display
Particle control
This is a gesture control through camera vision.
