A car with flexible skin and movable metal structures beneath. Theoratically, you an better customize the look of your car, it is scratch resistant and it probably costs less to change the entire “cover” too. But the best part is that it also consumes much less energy to manufacture these compared to full metal casings. Safety is not an issue because crash damping and structural integrity is handled by the frame. Love the lights.

A ZF project would not run out of the box on a fresh installation of WAMP. The purpose of this guide is to act as a checklist for the experienced, and a step by step guide for the more inexperienced.

The Kinetic Sculpture is a metaphorical translation of the process of form-finding in art and design. 714 metal spheres, hanging from thin steel wires attached to individually-controlled stepper motors and covering the area of six square meters, animate a seven minute long mechatronic narrative. In the beginning, moving chaotically, then evolving to several competing forms that eventually resolve to the finished object, the Kinetic Sculpture creates an artistic visualisation of the process of form-finding in different variations.

The graphics don’t look like much, but its a cool flash rendition of the classic Powers of Ten – except that now you control the accelerator and brakes. The scale is pretty impressive too, from quantum foam up to the whole universe, check it out at New Grounds.
