'Linear Motion'

'Linear Motion' is a giant kinetic sculpture that combines art and science for a large municipal science museum. Eighteen pendulum arms suspended from the building are operated by a computer-controlled counter weight that moves them based on scientific principals. To invite public interaction, when walked on sensors in lighted pavers set the sculpture into motion.
