MIT's Fiber Cloud

MIT’s Mobile Experience Lab has produced a cutting edge interactive sculpture known as the “Fiber Cloud”. “The Fiber Cloud is an organically shaped fiberglass structure that stands over two meters high and responds to human interaction through more than 15,000 optical fibers, each of which represents a pixel that can be touched, modified or moved in a physical way.”

The cloud is located in the new reception area of the Fortezza da Basso in Florence, Italy.

Established in 2004 the Mobile Experience Lab focuses on radically reinventing connections between people, information and physical places using cutting-edge information technology.”
