Whirligig

As seen in Installation at The ARC Gallery in Chicago.

Materials: Plastic Tubes, Motor, Motor Control Unit, Steel Bracket

This Whirligig device spins hollow tubes, creating an ambient drone of harmonic overtones. A simple motor control unit shifts the speed of the motor, hence shifting the pitch and intensity of the drone.
