Squeeze Me
From Bristol's fertile ground has sprouted something new and strange. Part fungus, part creature, at a giant fairytale scale...
Gigantic, inflatable and illuminated creatures are be wrapped around trees and lamp posts and street furniture inviting passers-by to play by hugging, squeezing or poking them. Using pioneering soft robotic technology, the fairy ring of creatures will respond with shape-change, light and sound and influence the behaviour of other creatures in the nearby cluster.
