Using a fragmented curtain wall with elastic stretchy rubber joints that allow for movement, i am changing the typical curtain wall into a living breathing interactive structure. With the structure located on the inside of the curtain wall, the privacy level controlled by the guest is changed from public to semi-private, to private, the curtain wall slowly changes from a transparent linear wall to a convex translucent waved of always changing glass.

You may want to think about building a mock-up of this curtain wall where physical manipulation of the glass changes the voltage running through the pane. All other applications of electrochromic glass have the window as a stationary element with an external "switch"... you might actually develop a way for the window to function as the switch.
