“The future energy is children.”
In Flip Dot Sculpture, the black surface of the flip-dot modules symbolizes current energy—oil, while the golden surface represents future energy—eco-friendly and sustainable energy.
The pinwheel elements surrounding the Flip Dot installation depict children as the protagonists of the future. Throughout the space, the transformation of energy from fossil fuel to clean energy is visually expressed, culminating in a radiant golden glow.
[Digilog Display: Flip Dot]
Flip Dot is a physical display system developed using circular magnetic indicators. By manipulating magnetic fields, the discs flip to reveal different colors on each side, visualizing data in a tangible way. During media performances, the flipping motion produces distinctive analog sound effects, which have become a key sensory feature of the installation.
