The Object Permanence series by Marco Pinter explores our perception of the existence of objects over time, which is fundamental to how we experience the world and our place in it.  By exploiting the perceptual effect of object permanence through the use of graphics, computers and robotically-controlled sculpture, the viewer perceives objects over time which do not in fact exist.  The “virtual” objects in the works behave as physical objects, thus impacting the gallery’s and viewer’s corporeal space.  The work cycles between states of chaos and order, where the component sculptural systems are alternatively perturbed and at peace.

Deep Shot by MIT student Tsung-Hsiang Chang and Yang Li from Google is a framework for capturing a user’s work state on one device and resuming it on another.

The system was developed during Chang’s internship at Google last summer and they presented a paper (PDF) at CHI in May.
