In the age of digitalism, short and fast transactions are a part of our daily life. We are used to paying with intuitive finger gestures in a few seconds with banking apps or with credit cards.The payment possibilities are immense, but at a certain point, we lose track of our finances.
Flux is a project which translates digital data from the bank account into a physical output without the use of numbers. Fluxis an attempt to change the user's understanding of their personal finances— it gives them the opportunity to influence their own money matters in a positive, easy way.
Flux is small and restrained, so it will fit into any situation. Just place this stationary sculpture on the wall and interact with it whenever you like.
Flux is able to receive and broadcast data, giving you a simple understanding of your own finances. Flux visualizes and encodes you cashflows with two pendulums. The leftpendulumrepresents your saving account while the right one shows the remaining budgetin you checking account.
Just activate the device with a short knock on the upper front of the housing, and watch as both pendulums automatically adjust to your latest account balance.
Flux can be activated as often as you'd like, and it gives you the opportunity to act immediately when your account is out of balance. In this particular case, you would pull down the right pendulum to recharge your account balance. The saving accountpendulumwill shorten itself simultaneously, transferring the money from your savings to your checking account.
