In this module, I aim to create a metaphor for the tension that can be transferred onto the individual through observing others. I want to craft an object that will either act, appear, or morph into a shape that aligns with societal expectations when observed and deforms when unseen. | In this module, I aim to create a metaphor for the tension that can be transferred onto the individual through observing others. I want to craft an object that will either act, appear, or morph into a shape that aligns with societal expectations when observed and deforms when unseen. Further, the idea is that the beauty of a unique appearance is often suppressed by the attention we receive from our peers. | ||

Analogy: The placement or removal of magnets (based on observation) alters the fluid's patterns. While being watched fluid is forced into a certain shape. This mimics the idea of individuals transforming their behavior based on external pressures. | Analogy: The placement or removal of magnets (based on observation) alters the fluid's patterns.

'''<u>Kilobots</u>''' | |||
Description: "The Kilobot is designed to make tests of collective algorithms on hundreds or thousands of robots accessible to robotics researchers." | |||

Analogy: the mentioned behavior will be simulated. The bots could act uniformly and would show unique patterns when not being watched. | |||
