wind.
I tried the razorblade/kite setup in the small window between the kitchen and the meeting room in Cemeti studio. The doors to both end of the kitchen were always open, and thus the setup was just very unstable.
I wonder how it would manage to keep stature in the gallery – Cemeti Art House is designed very well as a tropical building – with lots of opening and lots of winds.
Maybe I should just do a video of the whole setup?
build a wind tower – I think it’s a middle eastern building concept. create draft effects.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windcatcher – here’s a link!
hey tintin – i was thinking of a work – to use the pluse of the wind – gust to create a beat
But Charles, what I need is actually a system without wind. From what I’ve read the windcatcher actually creates flow of air …
My initial idea is that the kite is supposed to be contained within a small space, actually, and there’s wind generated by small plastic fan. I really don’t know how this will work, will have to build a setup soon.
Nice idea – using it to create a beat – physics rules! Heheh.
either the fan is powerful – or the kite is made of a very light material –
The kite is very light anyway (if it was heavier the string wouldn’t be able to hold) but I’m worried about the wind … let’s see. I’ll shop for fans this week I think. Will update.
