(n)certainties – Die Angewandte – Fall 2008

components:
multiple climbing legs with drill ends for vertical movement
pair of legs with blade ends for horizontal movement
multitude of specialized tentacles with different jets and nozzels or tools to deposit or manipulate the substance.
processing element, where the substance is chemically or physically transformed in it´s different stages.
tube connected to the watersource to provied the substance

water is the initial substance. It’ s ability to change aggregation and material specific inner forces like viscosity, surface tension and wettability, are the point of departure to create diversity in formal expression. It´s optical properties (refraction, reflection, glossyness….) is applied to distinguish different atmospherical situations. It´s physical properties of effective heat capacity and heat conductivity allows an interplay of release and absorption of energy. The anomaly in density provokes an uncertain change of state.
