    The changing nature of science

    TOKYO, JAPAN - FEBRUARY 11: Floatio is displayed at Roppongi Hills MAT LAB Mori Tower 52F, TOKYO CITY VIEW on February 11, 2017 in Tokyo, Japan. floatio is an I/O device that is able to make any spherical object float.In this exhibition, a model of an apple is used as the object. Newton discovered the concept of universal gravitation after watching a falling apple. This device, however, enables the apple to float and move upward . It will not be so long before all things in daily life float, like the introduction of drones, so now is the time to imagine our life surrounded by floating objects. One of the characteristics of this phenomenon is lifelike movement. Floating objects can be perceived as moving automatically; therefore, they make us feel affection to them as if they are alive. The motion of floating gives life to each single object, resulting in a change in the relationship between objects and users. (Photo by Koki Nagahama/Getty Images for Media Ambition Tokyo)
