cubelets

Cubelets are magnetic blocks that can be snapped together to make an endless variety of robots with no programming and no wires. You can build robots that drive around on a tabletop, respond to light, sound, and temperature, and have surprisingly lifelike behavior. But instead of programming that behavior, you snap the cubelets together and watch the behavior emerge like with a flock of birds or a swarm of bees.
it is a new modular and tactical way to teach kids to learn how the idea of electronics and  logic.
If the look is gonna have a cuter and softer touch, it is more likable for kids.

still life
Still Life by Scott Garner is an interactive wall piece that takes traditional still life painting and ads a motion-sensitive frame on a rotating mount.
Thought painting as a format of traditional art, it is truly interesting to combine the new technology to interact with the painting.
If it is possible, we could add more interaction to it not only the physic system in the “still life”

The Warhol: D.I.Y. POP
Create your own digital silkscreen print, just like Andy Warhol would have with the Warhol: D.I.Y. POP app from The Andy Warhol Museum.
It allows the guest to reproduce the artwork and to learn the process of making the artwork is very important.
It could has a better sense of aesthetics.
