Natalie Jeremijenko Live Wire

Natalie Jeremijenko Live Wire

One of the earliest ubiquitous systems was artist Natalie Jeremijenko's "Live Wire," also known as "Dangling String," installed at Xerox PARC during Mark Weiser's time there. This was a piece of string attached to a stepper motor and controlled by a LAN connection; network activity caused the string to twitch, yielding a peripherally noticeable indication of traffic. Weiser called this an example of calm technology.
