SplashLoop
An interactive kinetic art studio for kids and families where users bounce on a mini trampoline while holding soap-based paint pens that create instant, gravity-defying artwork.

The Wow Moment
A 10-year-old bounces vigorously and watches in amazement as their vertical motion creates a spiraling, colorful tower of hardened soap-paint that suspends in mid-air, defying gravity and becoming a tangible sculpture they can touch and take home within minutes.
