Touch, 2006
Commissioned by Ontario Science Center, Ontario,
Canada
Touch is a whimsical and educational interactive
installation. Fuzzy sensors are integrated into a humorous Giant
Sensor Pom (14" x14"). This piece presents an ironic version
of the POM POM as sculptural, decorative and functional object.
Viewers touch one of three giant, grey sensor POM POMs to control
lights inside a light box. When the lights are on, text and wiring
is revealed, showing how the technology works.
Media: Hand-made conductive sensors, recycled carpet yarn, conductive
tape, felt, acrylic, wood, incandescent light, lighting control
circuitry. Three textile sensor areas. 48"w x 48"h.
