Quotes regarding TechnoFrolics’ creations:

Of the Dancing Banners™ Choreographed Fabric "…Even in the midst of a large outdoor exhibition with many competing attractions, the Dancing Banners were
show-stoppers. Their exuberant performances halted people in their tracks…"
(Trade Fair Client) Robert Camassa, The Camassa Touch, LTD, Cyprus

Of the Dancing Iron Dust displays: "...Nothing can quite prepare you for the ticklish charm and wacky inventiveness of this performance piece.

Of the patent-pending Spin Browser™ video explorer: "The Spin Browser [video explorer] is a big hit. It works consistently. It is very intuitive. It's easy to use. The experience is unique and compelling. ...."
