Peugeot. 1900. Rene Vincent.
46 5/8 x 61 ½ in./118.5 x 156.2 cm
This absolute monster of a chassis, careening out of a Tricoleur sky, bounding along with wheels in the air, is not exactly correct. It appears to be a hybrid of the 1913 and the 1916 Peugeots, which each won the Indianapolis 500: the wishbone front suspension is 1916; the configuration of the chassis, more 1913; but the actual artifacts have a slight upward curve as the hoods reach the steering wheel. Instead, Vincent decided to streamline the car into a totem of power and speed, making the drivers nearly invisible behind the gargantuan engine block. By 1919, Peugeots were among the world’s fastest – in addition to the Indy wins, they broke the world speed records at Brooklands in England, and took the French Grand Prix as well. These roadsters weren’t the average consumer’s Peugeot, but that wasn’t the point for Vincent. Blasting a future driver with the force of speed, power, and Frenchness? Definitely.

Petit montage en boucle de la rotation de la sculpture cinétique “Di-Octo II” de Anthony Howe.
Cette oeuvre est à l'angle du bd De Maisonneuve Ouest et de la rue Mackay (Université Concordia).
********************
Small looping montage of the rotation of the kinetic sculpture “Di-Octo II” by Anthony Howe.
This work is on the corner of De Maisonneuve Boulevard West and Mackay Street (Concordia University).
This was a quick experiment with type in After Effects.
“Auspicious Messenger – kinetic sculpture by Bob Potts https://www.madgallery.net/geneva/en/…https://www.youtube.com/user/PottsScu…
In his one-man workshop housed in an 1850s barn, Potts creates ethereal kinetic sculptures capturing the very essence of natural rhythmical movements like the flight of birds or the oars of boats in his inimitable style
Born in 1941, the artist is a connoisseur of form, movement, and visual grace. The New York state-based artist manages to capture this reverence for nature by using a pallet of gears, cranks, sliders, levers and chain links to create kinetic sculptures
Potts invests substantial amounts of creativity and energy into his pieces. His sculptures can take up to a year to complete and each work of art is a unique piece”
From Youtube channel Perpetual Useless: Auspicious Messenger
Very hypnotic…

I’ve been away expending my knowledge on theories, its subtopics and concepts. I’ve barely scratched the surface of kinetics, but hey; big things start will small steps.
You would be forgiven for assuming that heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones—it sounds like common sense, and besides, you know for a fact that a bowling ball drops more quickly than a feather. And this is true, but it has nothing to do with gravity—the only reason this occurs is because the earth’s atmosphere provides resistance. In reality, as Galileo first realized about 400 years ago, gravity works the same on all objects, regardless of their mass. What this means is that if you repeated the feather/bowling ball experiment on the moon (which has no atmosphere), they would hit the ground at the exact same time.

7E Guest Artist - Daniel Palacios
Daniel Palacios is a multimedia artist with a Masters degree in Art and Technology from Cordoba, Spain. He creates machines that stir questions about perception, memory, moments, time and space. When I discovered his installation called Waves, I was enamored by it’s intrinsic beauty which reminds me of audio or ocean waves. Two machines are programmed to hold long pieces of rope and create unique movements reacting to it’s environment.
“The installation is affected by those who watch it. When the audience moves around it they influence the movements of the rope, generating visual and acoustic sound waves from harmonic patterns to complex ones. Depending on how we may act in front of it, according to the number of observers and their movements, it will pass from a steady line without sound to chaotic shapes of irregular sounds (the more movement there is around the installation) through the different phases of sinusoidal waves and harmonic sounds; examining the action-reaction principle applied to sound and space.”
