Drift
2009

Drift is a series of handheld interactive elements that investigate social behaviours. They were developed for the Super Human exhibition at RMIT Gallery in 2009. The luminescent pods pulsate softly - beckoning one to pick them up – engaging our curiosity. When curiosity overcomes and we pick the pods up they react to the holder in playful, confronting and unexpected ways. Drift questions how through imbuing our artefacts with interactivity we may actually be giving them personality traits – the capacity to behave in erratic, complex and unforseen ways.

The devices that make up Drift utilise nano-engineered electroluminescent cable which is activated by sensors.
