Phaeno Project - Wall Morphing

A pretty cool project that Merlin Systems came up with.

The Distance Touch Generator

The installation has two identical but mirrored parts which placed 100 metres from each other on the concourse of Phaeno, the newly developed Science Centre in Wolfsburg, Germany. Placing the two structures in distant locations will encourage the visitors to play with each other by manipulating the structures with their hands and bodies, and learning about each-other's shapes through touch. Furthermore, the visitors' touches will remain as shape-traces in the memory of the installation. In the moments of low activity, the installation will bring the traces back to the surface of the structures. The software will use the visitors' traces to create new shapes and body-forms: the traces will be mixed, transformed and grown, as if the visitors' touch has 'fertilized' this anorganic form that became alive and autonomous.
