description

During our course CPHOA we studied kinetic arts. The creations of artist Reuben Margolin were extremely inspirational. Drawing inspiration from his work we made a wave based on rotation of cams and crank shaft. The artifact invited people to interact and people were delighted by the interaction. We took the concept further.

We used reflecting surface on the rods and projected light on the reflecting surface as a result beautiful reflections were seen on the wall. The rotation itself presented with beautiful patterns. The pattern could be altered by modifying space on the rod allowing desired pattern to be reflected on the wall. Thus we thought of an installation which would show a symbol/ message during its rotation at one particular time and will be lost in next instance in random pattern which would reappear again. This would offer engagement and surprise. This can also guide a person to the artifact if projected far.
