Interactive art is a style of art that allows art to speak out to the public and have its viewers participate in response. Rather than “tell” the audience what they should do or believe, interactive art allows the public to join in on the idea and participate right along with it.

An example is the Composting Contraption created for the ScrapEden project in San Francisco, whose main goal is to educate everyone about the joys of composting. The Composting Contraption is basically a manually-powered machine that uses the science of kinetic energy to turn the barrel for a composting bin. The materials used to make this machine were either recycled or reused, which is a wonderful way to stay green and help reduce the trash in our environment. This mobile compost design will travel through the area, educating children and adults alike, to enlighten them about composting methods and ways to recycle. They hope to maintain San Francisco’s zero waste goals.Sources:
