Kinetic brixel artwork by BREAKFAST, 2019.
Awaken is an interactive kinetic art sculpture made from BREAKFAST's custom Brixels medium. As one moves their hand in front of the piece, each Brixel is brushed awake, then slowly settles back to its previous, somber state. The sculpture is an exploration of human interaction with a robotic medium, with the medium expressing a reaction to a person's movements.
Awaken is made of 168 Brixels — which use silent motors to quietly and smoothly rotate each element to precise locations.
