Photos: At NYU, a study in interactivity

ITP student Ruth Sergel created "Metahari," a sculpture that's essentially a comment on how technology can be used to rip off consumers. The idea is that you text Metahari, and she responds by asking for your credit card number. When you refuse, it asks for your Social Security number. Refuse that request, and Metahari gets upset and jams your cell phone.
