| MORE DETAILS / APPLICATION |
Kinetic metal sculpture finds its place in the homes of individual collectors, offices, businesses,
corporate environments, or anywhere one might enjoy this form of artwork.
The mechanical operation is not designed to be activated on a full-time basis; the works are
created with the intent of being generally static, while giving the observer the ability to bring
the contrivance to life "on demand" for limited periods.
Animation is achieved through the means of several options, including the standard electrical
cord-mounted thumb switches, to the more satisfying push button operation that energizes a
timing circuit for a predetermined period (typically about 45 seconds). This push button can
be built into the work or mounted to a small electrical box along the wire that supplies power.
A much more involved design option incorporates a "coin bank" style addition to the work that
actuates the sculpture for the preset time period following insertion of a quarter into a slot.
The bank features a "see through" face revealing the money inside and a (low security!)
lockable hinged back for coin removal. Several dollars of quarters can be held in the bank.
Every effort is made to create a safe, fun artwork. Please remember these are artistic pieces
and are not approved household appliances! Should a problem relating to a piece occur, please
contact us to discuss returning it to its original state, and do not attempt any repair.
Disconnect the piece from electricity when not observing its animation, and please use care as
with any electrical device. We are not responsible for the use or safe operation of the
artworks.
Please contact us for any special ideas or applications you may have.
