SKETCH OF A FIELD OF GRASS ('05-P)
(watch"SKETCH OF A FIELD OF GRASS" video)

Wolfe's robotic grass encapsulates watching a summer breeze rise and fall across a field. As in a real field, every blade responds to wind in slightly a different way. Individual blades in the installation are computationally autonomous, possessing ability to sense and respond to local environment independently. Each blade is both physically distinct and simultaneously part of a larger aggregate phenomenon. Emergent behavior that comes from the interrelation of independent nodal behavior interrepted in a group context is fundamental to the overall aesthetic effect.
