Sculpture Mix

This video is a rough compilation of sculptures, from 2000 to 2006. All of the kinetic objects in this video draw their energy from the ambient environment -- either solar powered or responding to changes in temperature.


The Beaufort Wind Scale (land use specification)

Calm: Smoke rises vertically.
Light air: Direction of wind shown by smoke drift, but not by wind vanes.
Light Breeze: Wind felt on face; leaves rustle; ordinary vanes moved by wind.
Gentle Breeze: Leaves and small twigs in constant motion; wind extends light flag.
Moderate Breeze: Raises dust and loose paper; small branches are moved.
Fresh Breeze: Small trees in leaf begin to sway; crested wavelets form on inland waters.
Strong Breeze: Large branches in motion; whistling heard in telegraph wires; umbrellas used with difficulty.
Near Gale: Whole trees in motion; inconvenience felt when walking against the wind.
Gale: Breaks twigs off trees; generally impedes progress.
Severe Gale: Slight structural damage occurs (chimney-pots and slates removed).
Storm: Seldom experienced inland; trees uprooted; considerable structural damage occurs.
Violent Storm: Very rarely experienced; accompanied by wide-spread damage.
Hurricane: Massive damage.
