The most important aspect to think about with this design was how a future dance floor would work. I began with looking at the traditional dance which is single plane, then what if you could create and multi-plane dance floor which brought me to a piece of artwork by Escher which explored relativity.
The idea was to explore if anti-gravity could be explored. I first decided to look at how centrifugal force could create an anti-gravity dance floor.
Unfortunately, this idea was quickly scrapped as while you could be fixed to a vertical surface during the rotation while it is spinning the amount of force on the person would not allow them to freely move around and dance.
During the final tutorial Ruwan called to my attention 'quantum locking' or levitation. This experiment which is still in its early days could be adapted to work for a dance floor.
