Project Details

"Like the slow, pendulous swings out of the creeks of our youth, Plasm: In the Breeze is very easy to engage; you just hop on and swing." 
 
"This full body involvement offers a more visceral interaction with the display than the usual 'hands-at-a-distance' interface. Visitors can jump on easily and move along after they've had enough. When no one is swinging, the 'creek bed' cycles through recent and favorite sequences from past performances."
