Description:
LightBundle is an optical fiber bundle with color-changing properties based on direct manipulation with the bundle and its composing strands. Inspired by daily interactions with flower bouquets and bundles of vegetables (such as asparagus), through grabbing, peeling, twisting the bundle, this enables seamless transition between the whole (the bundle) and the fraction (the strand). The metaphoric plant properties lends itself naturally to tangible interactions ranging from timing, location, social awareness to energy transfer.
