Data collected from outside (in my garden) is send to a computer which controls the speed of a digital whirligig. I'm not planning to exhibit the digital work, I'm going to build the models (which will be influenced by early American Folk Art) and use a micro-controller to command motors which will allow the whirligigs sway in the 'telepresent wind' that blows through the gallery ...more on this to follow...
It seems that this video is really bad quality, not to worry, I think we can just about see what's going on - if you cant make out the really dark bit at the beginning, its actually a shot of an accelerometer connected to a weathervane in my garden (it was dark when I filmed it!!)
