Please think about it: What's the air like today? Was the night sky beautiful last night? When was the last time you looked up at the sky? When was the last time you looked down at a flower? How do you Noticed that the world we lived is real? Our earth rotates at an average angular rate of 4. 167 x 10-3 degrees/ sec. A rotation takes 23 hours and 56 minutes, namely about an ordinary day. Because of the rotation of the earth, there is the alternation of day and night, so that there is the rise and fall of the sun, the transition between morning and evening, which constitutes “A day” in our daily life. A POOL OF WATER We use the "water" as a medium to map the earth's rotation -- the most fundamental fact of the world that we living in. In the northern hemisphere, due to the influence of geostrophic force that caused by earth rotation and the inertia of object itself, every object is subject to the rightward geostrophic force when moving. Similarly, the object in the southern hemisphere is subject to the leftward geostrophic force when moving. As a result, the gravity causes the downward vortex. What have we achieved technically on the basis of nature? Nature's vortices are presented in many forms, from whirlpools to eye of wind, from great dark spots to tornadoes... From the technical level, we are still mimicking the nature, using artificial power to direct the flow of water into an upwelling vortex and remain balanced and stable after reaching the overflow level we set. After a period of time, under the action of the time controller, the power source of the vortex changes from artificial power to the earth's gravitation and then the vortex realizes the decline. As the day goes on and on, the continuous swirl, rise and fall of the vortex can be formed. Half created by the god, and half created by man, it is the perfect combination of natural art and technology... This is the third and largest work in the vortex series that created by Sushui Art: about 10 meters in diameter. The 10 meter width can hold 26 people walking side by side, and can... Let us present you with a tale of rotation of things and moving of stars by the water vortex created by the nature and human technology. spiraling ripples just like the orbits of stars in the night sky. The lights in the center of the vortex seem to have a gravitational pull to attract people towards them. The vortex works in concert with the observatory, one looking up at the universe and the other looking down on the earth. /contact e-mail info@sushui-design. com
