Here is an idea of my
final project for the last semester. I need write a proposal based on this
concept to my lecture. I am not sure I will make this for general
public charity or for the parents and children in the playground.
It is an installation art
device that I proposed to name it "the way to love". The device is a
complex and difficult maze game machine, which will shape as a tree and hang on
the wall in a fixed dimension (Height: 2.5m, Width: 2m). There are several hearts
beside the "tree". It is a decoration too. On the ground, there is a
controller where people can stand on it to control the direction he/she wants
to go. When the participator playing the maze, we can see the steps of the
participator as shining water flows through the limit past path in the maze
within few seconds after movement, at the same time, different sound effect
will play followed by participator reach different sections. When reach exit of
the "tree", one heart will be lightened.
This device can be placed
at many public spaces, such as subway station or airport. It aims to provide a
recreational way for people who are boring during waiting time at public area.
Each Euro will donate to charity organization after one small heart illumined
by winner. This also makes an ordinary Euro into an extraodinaire one.

Inspired me
Maze
“The installation is called
Maze, and Mabonona uses the term to not only reflect the physical structure of
these circuits, but also how we might be lost without them—along with alluding
to the idea that, even though the average person interacts with them on a daily
basis, we still don’t really know much about their inner workings.” Link
Marbles
“'Marbles', Stuido
Roosegaarde's latest creation, is an interactive installation consisted of
large glowing forms which interact with people via sound, light and color. Each
'Marble' with embedded sensor and interactive technologies is responsive to
human presence. It also communicates with each other and transforms the square
into an interactive environment of light and play.” Link
Segway-Gravity
Control
"The Segway PT is a
two-wheeled self-balancing battery-powered electric vehicle invented by Dean
Kamen. Segway Inc. of New Hampshire, USA, produces it. The name Segway is a
homophone of the word segues, meaning smooth transition. PT is an abbreviation
for personal transporter.
Computers and motors in
the base of the device keep the Segway PT upright when powered on with
balancing enabled. A user commands the Segway to go forward by shifting their
weight forward on the platform, and backward by shifting their weight backward.
The Segway detects, as it balances, the change in its center of mass, and first
establishes and then maintains a corresponding speed, forward or backward.
Gyroscopic and fluid-based leveling sensors detect the weight shift. To turn,
the user presses the handlebar to the left or the right."
