I want to create air movement but there is no electricity access.
So I had a vague stirring of an idea to build and hang one or more kinetic mobile sculpture from the high roof rafter —
My idea is to combine the concepts and designs for
- plastic bottle windmills
- holiday candle spinner
- kinetic hanging mobile
I feel like this should work, but does anyone have technical pointers? All three concepts are based on physics and science so there are probably some dos and don’ts?
For example, should the spinners be pointed up, down or sideways? Or more than one direction?
Would multiple spinners on one mobile cancel each other’s movements?
Should they occupy high space near the roof plastic, or should they be lower? Or should they be made long sculptures to hang from high to low space, nearly just above the plants or at least the low tunnels covering the plants?
I could probably hang 3 sculptures.
If you have made some large mobiles, I’d sure appreciate pointers since I’ve only made small ones to hang inside the house.
