Thi s kinetic artwork features pith petals that open and close in response to viewer interaction, evoking the natural movement of a mimosa plant through infrared sensor activation. Developed in close collaboration with local p ith paper artisans, the project highlights the expertise of traditional cr aftspeople while bridging heritage and contemporary technologies. By reima gining endangered crafts through hybrid methods, "Mimosa Pithics" fosters sustainable dialogues between tradition and innovation.\n\nInterest Area: Arts & Design, Gaming & Interactive, New Technologies, Production & Animat ion, Research & Education\n\nKeyword: Animation, Art, Artificial Intellige nce/Machine Learning, Audio, Capture/Scanning, Computer Vision, Digital Tw ins, Display, Dynamics, Education, Ethics and Society, Fabrication, Games, Generative AI, Haptics, Hardware, Image Processing, Performance, Real-Tim e, Robotics, Scientific Visualization, Simulation, Spatial Computing, Virt ual Reality\n\nRegistration Category: Full Conference, Experience\n\n END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
