Kinetic Walking Person Sculpture from Random International

Random International Studio has created a subtle but powerful kinetic sculpture called Study for Fifteen Points.  From Beautifullife.info:

With spindly legs that look like an upturned spider, this experimental kinetic artwork by Random International relies on the viewer to watch from just the right perspective to reveal a hidden secret. Each of the 15 ‘arms’ is tipped with white LEDs that collectively move to mimic the motions of a walking human figure. Titled Study for Fifteen Points, the piece was created to examine the “minimal amount of information that is actually necessary for the animated form to be recognized as human.”

In China, there isn’t really a distinctive categorisation between Thought and Philosophy, between common art and Contemporary Art. The Know-How “savoir-faire” isn’t considered lower than the idea. There is no Gift nor Talent instead of it there is hard working. Hsu Tung Han shows here his mastery that certain people would only consider as a great craftsmanship. And a lot of his artworks carries an anti-war message.

SCALO: Prosthetic Arm Designed Specially for Rock Climbing

SCALO is a specially designed trans-radial prosthetic arm for the sport of rock climbing. At the moment, almost all prosthetics have been designed for general use, it doesn’t target specific task, unfortunately, for certain activity, user requires specific shape of the prosthetic arm. This project aims to create fully mechanical and modular prosthetic arm, it has to be as economical as possible. The aluminum fairing is designed to dent and deform under contact while in use, in this way, over time, it will become a more personal item.

Extensive research were done, including visitation around UK disability clinics, climbing trips, hospital visits, and also collection of 3D scan data. During the design process, the designer tried to derive the design based around hero users, both men and women that he met from British Army who lost their arms during conflict.

Designer : Samuel Twist

SCALO Prosthetic Climbing Arm has been designed to be able to rotate 360-degrees, providing user complete handholds, but once under force, this tool would lock in place for safe climbing. This device is attached to the user using a silicon sleeve worn over the stump with a fabric elastic band that can be worn above elbow to create a suction lock. This silicon sleeve becomes the case for a stainless steel prong, attached through the socket of the device and can be easily removed via a release pin.

Tuvie has received “SCALO Prosthetic Climbing Arm” project from our ‘Submit A Design‘ feature, where we welcome our readers to submit their design/concept for publication.
