An attempt to construct a machine, which will produce the controlled formation of a moving spiral follows the studying of the videos and the experience of the project in the park. Several experiments are taking place, using various natural materials: sand, water, smoke, leaves, wooden fillings.

 

Several probation figures. Each one produces different effect to the air movement that flows inside the cylinder. The vacuum cleaner sucks the air out of the airtight cylinder, while air flows inside through the little symmetrical holes.
