Spark-un-plug__ arcangel constantini 2006-2011. sparkplugs, that are the essential electrical system of the gasoline motors. Its main function is the ignition of the combustion and thus to provide with impulse to the motors. The spark plugs transmit the originating electrical energy of the coil, in sparks of high voltage. These produced voltaic arcs inside the cameras of the motor, cause the combustion of the fossil fuel mixture with I oxygenate to high pressure, generating force and the escape of gases. The spark plugs are the simpler, and, simultaneously more complex electrical element of a motor. Not only they serve to generate the ignition, also serve to dissipate the heat of the cameras of the motor. It is contradictory that an element that one of its functions, the one to dissipate the heat, contributes to the main cause of the global Earth warming and therefore, to the defrosting of the poles - that on the other hand, shares the same function, but from natural way, the one to dissipate the Earth heat. In most of the automotive and aeronautical industry, this mechanism of internal combustion is used like only source to produce mechanical energy, which has caused, in its excessive and unique use, irreversible consequences for environment. Trillions of spark plugs intermient sparks constantly: electrical energy badly used, a function that disperses CO2 (carbon dioxide) to the atmosphere. A use of the electricity for an archaic and exhausting mechanical aims of environment.
Spark-un-Plug is a system of physical and conceptual feedback. The piece consists of a matrix of 300 independently controlled spark plugs that will in front of emit electrical energy of high voltage to a block of ice placed infront of them. The chemical processes of the events is sensed. The collected data is used as intervention of the work. The high voltage generated by the spark plugs - phenomenon in which an electrical charge travels between the cathode and anode of the system, will be the visual and sonorous event, the result engage in a dialog between both systems, the generator of the patterns of electrical unloading in the matrix and the one of the environmental balance Three states water are transmitted to the matrix of spark plugs that represented them like sequences of patterns visual and sound, that simultaneously will be generated and controlled by the system of sensors: the simulation patterns are liquid, a simulation of rain, Solid: , simulation of snowflakes , Gaseous: simulation of gaseous fluids. http://www.arc-data.net/sparkunplug/index.html _______________________________________________ NetBehaviour mailing list [email protected] http://www.netbehaviour.org/mailman/listinfo/netbehaviour
