e°Flow
Dynamic E-paper Sculpture
e°FLOW is an interactive sculpture that celebrates the unique capabilities of E Ink Prism™, a color-changing film developed by E Ink. The sculpture comes to life with visual behavior triggered by real-time sensor input; it senses the presence and movement of people and reacts like an elusive deep sea creature.
From a sleep stage with soft breathing interrupted by occasional "dreams," to reflecting the movements of passersby, to dramatic "startle" modes triggered by audience members waving their arms.
The sculpture premiered at the 2015 SEGD conference in Chicago, followed by an exhibition at ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena. e°FLOW was also on display at Milan Design Week 2016 and featured prominently at the SuperStudio Design Show.
