Home - Jeremy Geddes Art KMODDL - Kinematic Models for Design Digital Library The 220 models in Cornell University’s Reuleaux Collection were built in the late 19th century to demonstrate the elements of machine motion, as theorized by the German engineer Franz Reuleaux. The University acquired the models in 1882 for use in teaching and research. <more about the Reuleaux Collection> The Reuleaux models are classified according to the alphanumeric schema employed in the catalog of the manufacturer, Gustav Voigt. The letter in a model's ID (e.g., B14 or S35) refers to a class of mechanism; the number is a specific instance of the class. Click a class folder for a list of the models in the class and to browse thumbnail images.
ROSTLAUB Arthur Ganson's Machines / Kinetic Sculpture SCULPTURES LUMINEUSES | Fabienne Yvert LA NAISSANCE DE LA LUMIÈRE Une dizaine de jours sans néons ni ampoules de 100 W, le soir à côté du sapin de Noël, éclairé par les guirlandes lumineuses et le reflet des boules rouges & guirlandes argentées. Avec l’odeur enivrante des aiguilles de pin, l’ombre géante de l’étoile filante accrochée tout-en-haut & des branches qui se découpent sur le mur. Accroupis au pied avec mon frère, on regarde. Des fois on la fait clignoter mais ça énerve un peu. Dans la crèche, arrivé là le 25 décembre, un Jésus en plastique phosphorescent sur son lit de paille, aussi fascinant qu’un vers luisant. L’USINE DES RÊVES 1989 – La petite usine est la lampe initiale. AU COURANT Dans la nuit, réveillée par une très forte lumière, un moteur de bateau & des voix énervées qui guettent les rochers tout près du bord.
Heureka! Blog - Wissenschaft und Technik “begreifen” » Exponate Der kalifornische Künstler Reuben Margolin hat mit dem Swiss Science Center eines der komplexesten kinetischen Kunstwerke der Welt geschaffen. 50′000 Einzelteile der faszinierenden Mechanik erwecken die “Magic Wave” zu Leben. Reuben Margolin, spezialisiert auf mechanische Wellenskulpturen, hat mit der “Magic Wave” sein bisher grösstes und komplexestes Werk realisiert. Durch einen genialen Antriebsmechanismus wird ein im Raum schwebendes Netz aus 450 Aluminiumrohren in einen bewegten Wellenteppich verwandelt. Die 256 Knotenpunkte des Netzes sind an fast unsichtbaren Drähten aufgehängt, die von der Mechanik des Antriebs auf und ab bewegt werden. Wie ein riesiger mechanischer Marionettenspieler schwebt der Antrieb über der Welle, die mit der Präzision und Eleganz ihrer Bewegung den Betrachter in ihren Bann schlägt. Als Exponat im Science Center spricht dieses Kunstwerk nicht nur die Sinne an, sondern erlaubt auch Einsichten in die Natur von Wellen. Interview mit Reuben Margolin:

Early life[edit] Emett was born in New Southgate, London, the son of a businessman and amateur inventor, and the grandson of Queen Victoria's engraver. He was educated at Waverley Grammar School in Birmingham, where he excelled in drawing, caricaturing his teachers and vehicles and machinery. Later work[edit] An otherwise undistinguished career was interrupted by World War II, when he worked as a draughtsman for the Air Ministry while perfecting his gift for drawing cartoons. On 12 April 1941 he married Elsie May Evans (who was always known as Mary[2]), the daughter of a Birmingham silversmith. Exhibitions[edit]
J.W. Kinsey's Artifice Portfolio "the Hesterion: a wall sconce" - industrial grade resin, assorted electronics This is the Hesterion Wall Sconce. These are intended to be installed in multiples, surrounding a window or running down a hallway or library, for example. They do not need an existing electrical junction box, but rather simply surface mount to a wall with two screws. The knob at the bottom of the fixture is the rotary On/Off switch. The master pattern was entirely handmade in cherry wood, then molds were made for casting. If you purchase the "Unfinished" variant, you will receive a cleaned casting ready for paint. The electrical components included in the package are two UL listed light sockets, a rotary on/off switch, and two 40 watt Edison light bulbs. For questions about purchasing your own Hesterion Wall Sconce, please contact me for details, or go to my ETSY store. Photos by Curtis Almquist Studios.

Chuck Hoberman Hoberman (right) speaking with MIT design professor Neri Oxman Chuck Hoberman (born 1956 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, US) is an artist, engineer, architect, and inventor of folding toys and structures, most notably the Hoberman sphere. Early life and education[edit] Hoberman's father was an architect, and his mother was a children's book author.[1] He wanted to be an artist from an early age, doing drawing and painting, and eventually taking courses at Cooper Union in New York City. Temporary and permanent installations[edit] The largest Hoberman sphere is displayed at Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, New Jersey, in an atrium where it periodically contracts and then expands to a diameter of 18 feet (5.5 m). Hoberman has installed permanent building facades that transform in transparency at the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering of Harvard University and the Simons Center for Geometry and Physics at SUNY Stony Brook.[2] Toys[edit] Business[edit] Teaching[edit]
veo robots por todas partes. Me llamo Javier Arcos Pitarque y desde pequeño me gustan los robots, creo que esta afición me viene desde que veía una serie de T.V: que se llamaba “Perdidos en el espacio” allí el personaje llamado will robinson tenía un amigo robot, ahora después de coleccionar robots de hojalata he empezado a fabricarlos yo mismo.
