An Interactive Poetic Garden
The Interactive Poetic Garden is literally a fountain of words. Water flows briskly down a series of cascades into a glowing pool. A tangle of words projected on the surface of the pool float like leaves in a stream. Sitting on the edge of the pool - but without getting your hands wet -you can control the flow of words, blocking or stirring them up, causing them to grow and divide into new words that are eventually pulled into the drain, then pumped back to the head of the stream, only to tumble down again. The garden is one of the experiments underway in the Media Lab's Aesthetics and Computation group, under the direction of Professor John Maeda, working to sculpt computational media into new expressive forms.
