Does an architectural object have personality?

While verifying the code for the desktop art sculpture, I noticed that the tiny dancers/aechitectural components seemed to have personalities of their own.

For instance, take a look at this first one.  It’s a Rorschach test of its own:

The dancing mannequin has/is what? Climbed a set of stairs like an athletic Fred Astaire tap dancing in a top hat and tails? A social climber? A dreamer reaching for the stars? An astronaut on Mars constructing a new habitation module?

And what about this one?

Is the mannequin feeding the artificial flower or the other way around?

And the third example…

image

A dancing stage or a launch platform?

The fourth is even less obvious:

image

Half-built skyscraper or coloured tongue depressors glued together in a preschool class?

And, finally, the last example:

image

Is this a miniature version of sculpture in a metropolitan museum or the model for an upcoming music video production?

It is a robot decinstructed into its components as art — let your imagination run away with the interpretation!

So, should I go over to the visual programming side and use S4A, the visual method of programming the Arduino microcontroller?

I guess what I’m saying is wouldn’t be cool if people walking by our house could scan a QR code which took them to a place where they could either download an app and control the yard art sculpture via preprogrammed buttons or have the ability to program the yard art sculpture using visual tools?

Call that last paragraph Yard Art Sculpture 2.0.

 

For now, simply getting the first version programmed and built is a much bigger challenge!
