Swing Time is a temporary installation developed within the framework of the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority’s urban renewal initiative. The installation integrates energy generation and plays, demonstrating the relation between production and consumption.
Kreyon City aims at engaging the general public into a simplified simulation of decision making. The purpose of Kreyon City is twofold: from one side increase the awareness of participants on the complexity of urban systems, and from the other gathering data on their learning process about this complexity. Individuals are, in fact playing with a Machine Learning generative model trained on real data. However, the physical bricks they have to use to develop the city mediates this interaction. Depth sensors and RGB cameras record how the city is built and uses this as the input of the generative model. In this way, a specific configuration will correspond to a specific output in terms of urban indicators, that are displayed on a feedback monitor. Such monitor also displays missions and challenges related to the city that players have to solve by modifying the city itself.


The urban playscape is composed of 18 welded polypropylene swings, which hang under a customfabricated solar canopy. The swings are designed in three different sizes so that the community can engage and play with Swing Time as individuals or in groups.
Kreyon City has been developed both in single-player and collective versions. The single-player version allows single individuals to build their small city. In contrast, in the collective versions, many individuals have to coordinate to build the same large city, solving the problems together.  


Swing Time uses solar energy harvested from a series of photovoltaic cells that translate UV rays into electrical illumination.
Kreyon City is a tool for studying how individuals interact with complex problems. The software managing the depth sensors and the feedback display allows gathering data about individual decisions, wherever the installation is.


Responsive in real-time to environmental conditions, the playscape’s illumination corresponds to a daily accumulation of solar power, translating UV rays into a visual register that indexes the abundance of solar energy. Photovoltaic cells integrated into the canopy capture and store solar energy during daylight hours. Through an automated system, the accumulated energy is distributed into LED lights located on the swings.


Moreover, accelerometers installed within each swing directly respond to the acceleration forces and tilt exerted by users.

When the swings are not moving, they emit soft White light, thanks to the energy collected during the day.

As the swings increase in momentum from a static position, a microcontroller adjusts the LED output through a gradient scale from white blue to purple.

The responsive elements of Swing Time invite users to interact with the swings and with each other. The overall theme of Swing Time is to entice people of all ages to engage in active public play. Public play creates a community laboratory and raises awareness of energy consumption and production
