In the latest Instructable by Steve Mann, titled "Moveillance and Motor Metaveillance," we're introduced to an exciting new project that combines cutting-edge technology with artistic expression. This project revolves around assembling the MannLab SWIMotor kit, a Sequential Wave Imprinting Machine with a built-in motor for rotary SWIM. The SWIMotor kit enables users to explore motors and other physical phenomena in innovative ways, providing opportunities for deep understanding and creative expression. Originating in the 1970s, SWIM has evolved into a medium of scientific visualization and artistic exploration, paving the way for the modern-day metaverse. With thousands of kits distributed and taught...
