Sewing and cutting holes

fan box

yeap, i do realize it's bigger than it should be haha.

it's because I used the whole piece of wood as a measurement

one fan + funnel

basically the funnel is the sock we initially talked about.

the nylon wraps around fan box, enclosing a cavity of air that is focused into

the standard 15cm diameter holes.

so in order to make this work, we need to do two components for the tubes,

the 15cm diameter reduction tube and the original sized bigger tube as shown below.

What makes our aviation windsocks different? Two major things make a windsock, its material and its construction. We start off with a premium nylon fabric that is made right here in theUSA to our exacting standards. Nylon offers unparalleled windsock durability to the elements and will not become rigid in cold weather, keeping our windsocks extremely responsive in even the slightest of wind. From there it gets urethane coated and UV protected, giving the windsock superior fade resistance and color retention. The material is subjected to a variety of tests by an independent lab to verify its structural integrity and UV resistance. This superior material is then cut and sewn right here in our own facility. Our reinforced double stitched hems and heavy duty brass grommets, assures our windsocks long life reliability.

EXPLOSION VS INFESTATION PROCESS

Can our blobs follow these processes, an iteration of a virus infestation or volcanic eruption molded by our blow up spaces?

WHAT THIS SHITS ABOUT

We interrogate the concept of 'Explosion' by mimicking the gradual suspense involved in an explosive act. We have grasped at the idea of 'infestation' through the notion of a creature that emerges from the ground, harassing the container in an attempt to consume it. 

The folly, formed from clusters of transparent piping contorted around the container and bound together with clamps, stretches beyond the container in attempt to engulf the audience. Chaotic at glance it is structured through the use of a simple scaffolding grid.

The event is formed from large lengths of plastic bags, these emerge from the containers opening and spread out into Myers park with the force of a generated wind, fanned from inside the container. This creates a movement that gives life to the colossal tubular forms. Lights and smoke spilling out from the opening enhances the atmosphere of an agitated monster emerging from within the container. The public will engage with the buoyant forms as it detours their direct route for active participation.

-Waterquake: Theo Botschuiver & Jeffrey Shaw, 1970

In Waterquake long lengths of tubing were dropped into a canal and then slowly inflated with air and smoke. The tubing emerged from the water, filling the canal and then spilling over into the surrounding streets. The spectators pulled and knotted these tubes into various forms - when they broke holes in the plastic skin the smoke inside was released.
