Grass is an interactive tactile interface that invites participants to touch the luminous fiber-optic grass. Different light patterns are created depending on how participants touch Grass. This explores natural "touching" or "stroking" gestures using soft-circuit techniques that experiment with alternative conductive materials: conductive paints and fabrics.
