Exploration of the natural world is a crucial part of child development. Clover is an interactive toy to present found objects while practicing describing the world around us.
Clover speculates on how future technolgy can accompany and enhance play, learning, and discovery of the Earth.

The world changes without us noticing
The sun has a different trajectory everyday and leaves slowly change color. We miss a lot of these gradual transitions. How can I encourage people to spend more time outside and observing these changes?
Inspiration
The collection and display of trinkets, observerable ways to quantify changes, interesting processes or materials.

Process
A low tech beginning.
A high tech continuation.
What do we bring out into the world with us? How could this design be unobtrusive and easily brought around?
I liked the idea of having an object/recorder to be brought around and used to describe objects in real time, in their environment. At home the recorder is docked and used to prompt a display for pocket treasures found while exploring.
*solidworks process here?

- Oh my, solidworks does not like having many tiny holes with many sticks!
- Translation between low to high tech targeted different aspects
- texture should be added physically in sw instead of ks
