I designed this installation in order to research how a futuristic technology can be employed to produce imagery. The experimental heart of this interactive space, a self-made multi-touch screen, is a collaborative tool, tactile toy and visual laboratory rolled into one.

The project was exhibited several times and has been met with an enthusiastic reception by the audience. It stands to demonstrate how technology would ideally stimulate everyone's willingness to experiment – be it a child, a designer, or any other person – since it can render previously tedious tasks more humane. For instance: ornamental complexity. People interacting with the piece can manipulate digital designs on the table with their bare hands and the assistance of metaphorical (yet physical) everyday items. What they do is instantly repeated as a pattern on the walls, empowering them to dynamically alter the atmosphere of their surroundings.

A utopia: The digital should offer us an expressive, more humane approach to new visual worlds.
