This studio will investigate the social, spatial and political implications of these questions through the creation of a collective installation composed of individual, network-enabled things. We will explore and problematize simple behaviors of responsive things (for example: plants that tweet when they need water, a light bulb that indicates a coming storm by changing color) and study how these behaviors gain complexity not only in their networked interactions with each other, but also though embodied interactions with people in space.
