This research is focused on the elastic kinetics and a novel morphological vocabulary it can offer, by articulating a gradual phase change and revealing a new aspect on time perception. Within this rigorous framework, I hope to build coherent methodology for informed design, bridging different aspects of complex kinetic systems - evaluation of formal aesthetics and investigation in live physics simulation - into an interactive design generative process.
