George Rickey Kinetic Sculpture

WorldUp Simulation

When I was at university (Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute), there was a controversial sculpture on campus. Some people hated it, but many engineers found it amazing to watch the huge aluminum slabs sway gently in the breeze.

The sculpture disappeared from campus and year later I conducted a search for the Chrinitoid. Ultimately, I found it (in Switzerland) and documented my quest in the RPI Alumni magazine.

There is also a page on my personal site:

As well as his own mini blog: www.paynecentral.com/chriniblog

The animated GIF above was a quick WorldUp demo that I made while working at Sense8. It probably took 5 minutes to create and animate given it’s basic features…but it may be the only WorldUp artifact I have left.
