anyWare is an IoT distributed sculpture that will consist of three physical objects, connected to the internet, placed in different physical locations. The objects will mirror each other (either symmetrically or asymetrically) and simultaneously respond to people who interact with them in any physical or virtual location.

For example, if someone walks into the gallery in Montreal and interacts with the object, the sensors on that object will transmit the information to the server hosted in the cloud, which will house the logic for the interaction. The server will then transmit to all three objects a response to the stimuli. This way all three objects will be moving in an identical manner.

The objects in anyWare will wait dormantly for someone to interact with them. Each object will encourage a set of playful interactions that are designed to encourage experimentation, exploration, and potential “conversations” with other interactors. The exact nature of this interaction will be explored in the research for the project, as well as the physicality of the object itself. However, the object will be designed to transform in the experience of exploration (either with one person or potentially with many people) and in so doing will reveal different levels of interactivity.
