Portraits Nebula is an interactive kinetic artwork that uses BREAKFAST's custom-engineered Flip-Disc medium. This computer-controlled installation invites you to become a part of its history. As you engage with the piece, it will record a brief clip of your interaction and play it back at a later time, cycling through all of the portraits captured.

Flip-Discs are small dime-size circles that can rotate 60 times per second using electromagnets. The artwork challenges your perception of what art can be and pushes the boundaries of traditional mediums.
