我们设想，我们居住的建筑空间将成为人类和在线数字信息之间的接口。我们一直在设计环境信息显示器，以探索利用动态物理对象在人类感知的边缘呈现信息。本文报道了一个大型风车装置的设计，该装置由40个计算机控制的风车单元组成。风车在网络空间吹来的“比特之风”中旋转。旋转风车阵列通过运动和声音的微妙变化在建筑空间中呈现信息。我们描述了风车的迭代设计和实现，并讨论了设计问题。
We envision that the architectural spaces we inhabit will become an interface between humans and online digital information. We have been designing ambient information displays to explore the use of kinetic physical objects to present information at the periphery of human perception.This paper reports the design of a large-scale Pinwheels installation made of 40 computer-controlled pinwheel units in a museum context. The Pinwheels spin in a "wind of bits" that blows from cyberspace. The array of spinning pinwheels presents information within an architectural space through subtle changes in movement and sound.We describe the iterative design and implementation of the Pinwheels, and discuss design issues.
