Sweet Tweet is the first project to come out of Uniform’s research platform, ULAB. We’ve been exploring the idea of Physical Apps, objects that connect to the internet to perform dedicated tasks, enabling users to access information or services without using a standard interface like a mouse, keyboard or touchscreen. Sweet Tweet is an extension of this idea.
We wanted to create a physical app that connected our studio to our Twitter followers, so we created a cuckoo clock that dispenses sweets for our team to eat, each time we get a new follower on Twitter.
Now every time we’re followed everyone in the studio shares a very tangible, glanceable and aural notification as our clock toots and tweets a sweet, which makes us all smile. Follow us on twitter at http://bit.ly/zdJAFq
1992 Marble Answer Machine. The physical visualisation of a system. This was the second of many demonstrations that simplified the interaction of products. It uses the direct manipulation of messages within the descriptive environment of a product and then the extension of this language to other products. Durrell Bishop Luckybite.com

Over a period of 30 days I challenged myself to created 1 second of animation every day. The idea was to experiment and explore workflow in the software package Cinema 4D and publish one frame from my experiments daily.. The rules: -Animate 1 second everyday -Publish one frame daily at blog.steffenk.net -Put it all together to approx. 30 seconds of animation In the end I didnt quite manage to complete this challenge on a daily basis, but I ended up with 30 motion tests and this is the result..
