Expressive KineticObjects

To explore the
use of motion of physical objects to convey information and emotion, we have designed
a series of Expressive Kinetic Objects
The Dyna-Lux is a kind of Expressive Kinetic Objects. The Dyna-Lux is a table lamp augmented
with a microprocessor, sensors, and the ability to physically move. We are experimenting
with the lamp as a physical qualitative display of digital information. Wobble
Lamp is the precursor to Dyna-Lux.
