Individual Project

Hummm…… Hummm…… Hummm……

Oscillating sand that eats your memory, and time itself.

Do you have a collection of small objects that only you know the stories and significance?

One that holds so much meaning, yet you only think of perhaps once or twice a year?

One that gradually recedes beneath the surface of memory

One that occasionally cross your eyes, and bring up forgotten moments like a key?

A small tech demonstration that uses digitally controlled linear motors to periodically vibrate a sand bed, where small objects gradually sink beneath the surface.
