This spatial kinetic model is a progressive extension of the 'web' models we had been creating. We had been working largely with gears and other mechanical systems while creating our drawing machines but wanted to extend this exploration to generate more three dimensional or spatial gears.
These kinetic models are articulated with intersecting planes, overlapping linear members, and pivoting points. These components interact creating mobile dynamic compositions that change. The challenge became to create strong compositions from all angles as well produce a mechanism that moves and 'sways' comfortably and elegantly.
beautiful. i wish i could be more articulate, but this stuff you guys are doing is just simply inspiring.
ReplyDeleteagain, beautiful. the photographs are well constructed; they totally change the inherent composition of the object. well done
