Blinky


Blinky is a remote communication system based on the internet, which allows two people who are distant to keep in touch in a different, unusual and involving way.

The system is composed of two devices, one per user, each of which is activated by blowing and produces a visual output which represents the weather conditions of the place where its partner is.

Each box has a “dimple” which is used both for the main input and output, and a ring of light around it that resembles a dandelion, used to represent the other user’s interaction.
