Swarm

What is round, metal & deals with art & techology?
 
It's called "swarm" (created by the orb swarm team)...They've created metal spheres that move autonomously on their own, while knowing where they are & where to go next...

Basically they are: Mechanical-Kinetic sculptures.


So what about the art part?

ART (lol)
 
 
The swarm orbs were tested in New Orleans, November 13th for the American Anthropological Association conference. (That was the result!)


There wasn't a real reason why this was made...The team simply said:
"What can we create that's challenging & creative?"

  2. I can see you getting into art and technology. It is a growing field right now combining the artistic side with technology for really cool displays and effects.
