Infra-red technology has been around for years, and now scientists are working on energy efficient methods of harnessing infra red energy and using it for heating purposes.
This project proposes we take this technology and use it not only to heat up spaces by storing and releasing heat from the surrounds and the earth, but through the art of thermal imagery use the same technology to create a floor that is expressive of its surroundings. That is to say, I aim to create a self heating '[floor that has an ever changing pattern on it, a pattern defined by the ambient temperature in a space and the heat radiated from beings and objects in or onto the space.
