Drift is an interactive public display wall. As people move by the screen, the text floats as if moved by a breeze. Drift was conceived as part of the MITree entry to the Kendall Square Interactive Media Design Competition. Pedestrians could move their bodies to browse through messages from an online community message board. Drift was also used at the 2006 Venice Biennale of Architecture to introduce a series of architecture projects by MIT's Senseable Cities group.
