With \u003ci\u003eThe Wind Tunnel Model\u003c\/i\u003e, artist and scientist Florian Dombois proposes new forms of interaction between art and science. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Key to this project is Dombois's wind tunnel laboratory at Zurich University of the Arts. With an empty test platform, the laboratory is a compelling example of architecture that turns its back on its occupants, forming an invisible, yet disturbingly concrete, secondary model. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Wind Tunnel Model\u003c\/i\u003e features essays by Dombois and his collaborators, reflecting on this innovative concept for transdisciplinary collaboration. Together, they present a new model of interaction in artistic research and creation--the \"man engine,\" a mechanism of reciprocating ladders and stationary platforms installed in mines to assist miners between different levels, a mechanism that also serves as a metaphor for work at the wind tunnel laboratory. At the cutting edge of transdisciplinary research and education, \u003ci\u003eThe Wind Tunnel Model \u003c\/i\u003ewill forge a new path to creative production. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Florian Dombois\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3858817929\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783858817921\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Scheidegger and Spiess\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/15\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Florian Dombois","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48446435426559,"sku":"9783858817921","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8190589b-12ed-47cc-b270-8b5b9ffe5678.jpg?v=1777224613","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-wind-tunnel-model-florian-dombois-9783858817921","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
