SWARM

SWARM

”SWARM is a kinetic art work consisting of multiple semi-autonomous spherical robots ("Orbs") that roll under their own power. Each has a spherical shell 30 inches in diameter: roughly waist high to an adult.” Currently SWARMs are radio controlled but the plan is that they will start receiving commands from a ‘mother node’. Watch the video to see them do their rolling.

Sunlight Recites Poem

Sunlight Recites Poem

This is the One Day Poem Pavilion by Jiyeon Song. The pavilion is reminiscent of a geodesic dome. When daylight filters through the perforations on the surface, a poem becomes revealed on the ground as a projection. Within the pavilion, the poem can be seen between 8 AM and 4 PM. The poem consists of 5 lines with each line lasting about an hour. The slowness of message offers us a meditative moment within our hectic lives.

Interactive Hologram Leads To New Ways Of Communication?

We’ve seen many futuristic technologies from movies become reality. So which movie was it that showed life size holograms? AirStrike shows us such a hologram.

Did This Guy Invent Free Energy?

Did This Guy Invent Free Energy?

In 2006 there was a company claiming to be able to produce free and clean energy. It turned out to be a hoax. Now two Australian inventors say they have made a revolutionary generator that can produce 5 times as much power as it consumes. I hope this technology is not a hoax and the production of it won’t be stopped by the big companies.
