    Great points here.
    We should use motion detectors more so lights come on as we move through the room and turn off once we leave the room.

      You know a light switch does that right?

      We literally already have them. There are even ones that run on batteries for less used areas you don’t want to wire like closets.

    This is that f the dying world type stuff. We don’t need this at all. Its just more stuff that will end-up in a landfill.

    Seems nice, but I think static is about feeling safe. No predators jumping on you. You can concentrate on your task at hand without having something fluttering in your peripherals.

    Moving parts in rooms? Good idea for an arts project. For everyday life, this is complicated, expensive to create, high maintenance and raised risk for defects and issues.

      You are kidding right?

    No thanks why don’t you come up with something that will actually help people rather then something cool for billionaires

    Probably because moving parts introduce points of failure. If it moves it can break. But still, it’s pretty to have moving things so I see the argument for the aesthetic.

What do you hear when you sit in silence? For artist Rose B. Simpson, that question is the beginning of all art.

What do you hear when you sit in silence? For artist Rose B. Simpson, that question is the beginning of all art. She comes from a line of ceramic artists stretching back generations and, as part of her multidisciplinary work, she also builds custom lowrider cars. (If that sounds like a contradiction, that’s kind of the point.) In conversation with “Design Matters” podcast host Debbie Millman, Simpson invites you to find your own aesthetic — not by searching, but by listening. (Recorded at TEDNext 2025 on November 10, 2025)
