e/motion Activation at The Meadow

If you've taken a stroll past The Meadow in Downtown Bellevue recently, you may have noticed a new and playful addition to the neighborhood: a collection of colorful, illuminated see-saws. Meet e/motion, an interactive art installation that puts a creative twist on a childhood favorite, inviting visitors of all ages to experience the sights, sounds and sensations of the ocean. With glowing waves that respond to every up and down, immersive seaside sounds and imaginative design, this one-of-a-kind activation brings a little extra wonder to Downtown Bellevue. Read on to hear from the creators about the inspiration behind this unique experience!

Feeling Wavy 

e/motion is a revisited version of our childhood see-saw that invites you to dive into the joys and sensations of surging water. As you ride this infinite wave, the glowing liquid acts like a living entity that responds to your ups and downs.

From the integrated lit waves and water drops handlebars, to the soundscape redolent of the sea, users and bystanders are invited to explore e/motion's magical ocean ambiance from every angle. Is the base a whale's tail or two water droplets? Let your imagination guide you along.

Sea-saw your way through this one-of-a-kind experience. Come for the laughter, stay for the memories.
