PARTNERS TIMELINE

Shannon Wei Feb - March 2024

Concept Overview

We were tasked with creating a new cybernetics interaction based on Andy Warhol’s “Silver Clouds” existing exhibition. We want the system to be a feedback loop that learns over time. This project spans from ideation (storyboards) to physical creation (finding which sensors to use, material analysis, etc…)

Storyboard

Creating an art exhibition where humans and the cloud balloons are able to “communicate” with each other through “cloud watching”. We created a system where over time, the clouds learn which configurations create certain shapes.

System Feedback Loop, Constraint, and Conclusions

Creating a Cybernetics Model that the system can learn to understand new forms over time.
