The Kineticus The Kineticus is an artwork whereby the wind communicates with us by turning around nine characters on three pillars. With as result that the wind creates in total 27 different English trilateral words which will evoke memories and which will motivate and inspire people to communicate 24 hours a day with each other. The words (meanings) are:
I would like to realize this artwork for the Moma in New York as Moma is for me and others a temple to talk, to write, to listen, to sing, to dream, to chat, to think and to relax.
The technique
of the Kinetikus is very simple; I only need wind to
rotate
the triangular boxes freely about their shaft. Although,
“the Kinetikus” will also have an extra communication
tool so that people can communicate with “the
Kinetikus”
via SMS technology.
Furterhermore, "the
Kinetikus"
is
inspired by two beautiful kinetic artworks “Two Turning
Vertical Rectangles” and “Three Columns”
of the
great American artist George Rickey
in Rotterdam
Moma New York
At the moment I try to realize the Kinetkus
for Moma's Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Sculpture Garden. The lightartwork The orginal design for the Kinetikus is evaluated from a metal George Rickey (one of my favorite artist) into a Vermeer construction (google). The metal triangular boxes are replaced by abstract earrings in I-Pod look. The white pearls (boxes) are transparent and at night the transparent boxes will be lighted by inner light. You can read more about in the chapter lightartwork. Dutch Version The Kineticus
can also be realised in a Dutch Version. |
