Meng Meng Bu, Ruyi Yang, Yinuo Tong – Floating Wonderland

July 4th, 2023

Course: D5 – Meta Objects

The Meta Objects Studio is set up to develop, design and build a new breed of user-responsive products. Meta Objects combine physical materiality with digital information. They are a fusion of physical and digital reality.

This project is called “Floating Wonderland,” what you can see is an array of creatures gracefully floating around the wonderland (center model). The focal point of this wonderland is the light emanating from the center, which serves as the life force that keeps all the creatures alive and in motion. A unique feature of this interactive experience is that when you place your hand on the model, the light dims, causing the creatures to cease their movements and the accompanying music to fade away. As part of the interactive nature of the project, you can engage with the creatures using your fingers, freely moving them across the screen, and even crafting your very own creature shapes.
