3-D Zoetrope Kinetic Sculpture 48 inches x 24 inches x 36 inches Stewart Dickson |
|
|
A Zoetrope is constructed by attaching 60 phases of an object in metamorphosis to a rotating wheel.
The ''animation'' is ''frozen'' in space via synchronized stroboscopic lighting. The metamorphosis
is a torus turning ''inside-out'' at 3 points on its surface. Costa's genus 1, three-ended minimal surface is topologically equivalent to a simple torus. Software: The Mathematica system for doing mathematics by computer (Wolfram Research, Inc.) and custom software by Stewart Dickson. Hardware: Silicon Graphics, Stratasys Genisys Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) Machine Thanks to collaborators at the PRISM Center, Arizona State University
