The Tropism Well

The Tropism Well from Poietic Studio on Vimeo.

Video Description:

The Tropism Well uses natural laws of physics to function. Once it has seen you, the gentle bowing motion is created simply by moving water up and down the stem.

Through the synthesis of nature and technology, these structures explore the relationships we have with objects and spaces that surround us on a daily basis. The simple gestural connection that’s created offers a stimulating and symbolic moment.

We plan to use Tropism Wells at festivals and events and also open up conversations for permanent installations to replace the current ageing drinking fountains in public space.

Video Description:

Falling objects – positioning systems from 2009-2011 is an custom made machine that adds drops of water onto a special textured surface. Each drop forms into an almost perfect sphere through the surface tension of the water and the omniphopic Material. The electronically controlled pipette wanders through a square grid of 21 x 21 drops to form a micro-matrix and returns to the beginning. After approximately 300 minutes, and when the water drops have evaporated, the same process starts again.
