Motion & Movement

 

This image of furniture that has visual mode that allows an implied sense of motion by its waving design. It features motion sensor and RGB LEDs, the lounge chair reacts to touch and movement ofthe user through a different light and color patterns display. Its shape of design gives a sense of movement where some of curve waves look like they are moving from left to right. Even though, the material of this lounge chair, glass, does not create for motion or movement design, the shape allows to   communicate with motion that operating in this in this design.                                                                        

This is "one of Valve's most renowned character design theories, evident in all recent multiplayer games from Team Fortress to Left 4 Dead." I found a sense of motion that operating in this character design where each figure as a shape creates their direction of movement. The designer try to emphasize the each figure has form of the motion that can be created with the distinction of human shape. All the figures create a illusion in way that they look like they are in motion, walking toward each other. 

I really like this image of Kinetic sculpture in BMW Museum.  It says, "the Kinetic Sculpture is a metaphorical translation of the from-finding process in design." It consists of 714 spheres of metal balls that are hanging with a thin wired from the ceiling. All the metal balls hold in the position where they create a specific design (shapes). Once they position at specific shape, the metal balls hold the position, but they still are operating a sense of motion that they are moving around realistically.
