This piece consists of a columns of drifting membranes that stop moving when a person stands in front of it.

I particularly liked this piece as a work of art. The layout and design of the membranes make the piece look like a work of art.In addition, the interaction is very subtle and graceful: the membranes grind slowly to a halt as a user stands in front of them. This interaction closely models how viewers of art pause to gaze at art in order to appreciate it. When users simply walk past the system, the membranes don’t slow down; this aspect forces users to pause and gaze at the piece in order to appreciate it.
