ELizabeth Meyer describes interactivity as a way to “rescue the visual by connecting it to the body” she investigates the relation between something beautiful being an emotional response and therefore something that is ephemeral.

She further explains that public understanding of sustainability must exist in more than just the ecological health realm but also the cultural sphere. “While I do not believe that design can change society, I do believe that it can alter an individual’s consciousness and perhaps assist in restructuring her priorities and values.” Elizabeth Meyer 2008 Sustaining Beauty: The Performance of Appearance – A Manifesto in Three Parts. p10
