Product Description

Dynamic kinetic art condensed to a table top wonder. Welcome meditative beauty into your home with the Sisyphus Mini Executive Tabletop. Sisyphus works by magnetically pulling a steel ball through sand using a WiFi controlled robot. The tracks the ball leaves in the sand field create captivating, intricate, and endlessly changing patterns under a tempered glass top. Sisyphus merges decor and furniture, with stunning art.

All Sisyphus designs come preloaded with 30 different design tracks that will automatically start running once plugged in. Connect your Mini to WiFi and unlock over 550 tracks made and shared by other users around the world on the Sisyphus App. Create your own designs right from the app, customize your kinetic art experience, and experiment with two-ball mode to diversify the patterns your Sisyphus can create. The addition of RGBW LED lighting combines brilliant color and dynamic kinetic lighting options with the table's stunning dune patterns. Customize white and colored lighting using the Sisyphus App and enhance the look of your space with the perfect blend of art and technology.

This fully enclosed Mini Sisyphus is perfect for any tabletop display, featuring a clean, modern look with a tempered glass top and beautiful wood veneer finish.

FAQ

How is the sand restored to it's original condition between "drawings?"

You have the option of running one of the “erase” tracks (tight spiral over the entire sand field) in between each track if you want a clean slate which is great for images or words. Better yet, let each track layer on-top of each other adding interesting complexity and looking different each time.

Do you draw your own art or does the ball draw automatically based on options?

You can draw your own art in several ways or from the mobile app, just select any of the 400+ shared tracks you want to run, their order, if/where you want an erase track and much more then save it as a play list you can use whenever you’d like.

How do I get another ball?

If you would like a spare ball or other size ball this can be purchased at the Sisyphus Industries parts store online.

What are the dimentions of the sand part itself?

The viewable diameter of the sand field on the Mini EX is 9.9".

How does the sand last in very humid areas?

There are many tables operating in humid areas, it has not been a problem.

Is replacement sand available?
Yes, replacement sand is available.

Does it make noise?

We've designed them to be as quiet as possible but some sound is unavoidable. This can also be limited by decreasing the speed of the Sisyphus.

If I need to transport the item and the sand shifts or piles up on one side will the item work properly?

If the sand shifts to one side you can easily remove the glass and smooth it out with your hand or small card and the ball running tracks will self-level it again. If transporting longer distances it's best to remove the sand and lightly vacuum the bed before boxing to keep sand off the glass and mechanism.

How does the marble move?

The Sisyphus contains a robotic mechanism with a magnet to move the ball through the sand field.

Can the table run by battery?

The table is not battery operated.

How big is the base?

The base is 12" diameter by 1.5" tall. The upper hoop is 15" diameter by 2.5" tall.

Is it wireless enabled or do I need to plug in the ethernet?

The Sisyphus Mini does support wireless communication. In high use wireless environments Ethernet is advised, though.

Can it makes it own design without the apps? Can you just plug it and makes it own design?

Yes, it will immediately start playing about 30 different tracks but you can connect online for over 1,000 more to share.
