Little Bang
2001, Web project
Little Bang consists of an dandelion clock on an online gallery. Highly responsive, you can interact with the dandelion clock and make it rotate with a horizontal drag of a mouse. Drag the mouse across the dandelion and depending on the rate of each participants spin, the seedlings disperse to form a relativistic 'solar system' slowly orbiting around the clock head. By dragging the mouse in a downwards direction, the mass of the head gradually increases and gravitationally attracts the seedlings to form tighter orbits until they are sucked back onto the dandelion’s head.
