WeMe is designed to help remote families stay in touch, providing peripheral awareness of each other combined with the possibility of more direct interaction. WeMe's ferrofluid bubbles move in response to ambient sounds, both local and distant. As many as three family members can generate patterns intentionally, by moving their hands around the surface. WeMe acts as a stand-alone sculpture, a passive indicator of remote activity and a source of shared interaction.
