“Architects play a lot with transparency, translucency and reflectivity but here’s something that does all the same things but the atmosphere makes the decision”
Ned Kahn, 2010
‘Connecting through Kinetics’ is a Wyndham City Gateway project aiming to reconnect residents and people travelling through Wyndham with the site. Heavily influenced by artists and designers such as Ned Kahn, Ruben Margoln and Janet Echelman, the project uses motion and dynamic objects to generate interest. This project aims to use Wind as an important changing variable and uses its power to generate different geometrical shapes and effects. The users of the site, bound in the seats of their cars, sit through the
experienceof this invisible phenomenon becoming visible through the movement of spinning turbines.
Although many of the precedents work without the use of computation, this sculpture uses Rhino3D with the plug in Grasshopper to further enhance and simulate the effect and execution of this proposal. These turbines are massed on site and distributed according to their function. For example, the topography determines the span and height of these turbines to utilize the maximum catchment of
wind. Simple rules determine the spread of these turbines.
The project further advanced the interaction between people and site, this is depicted through the moving vehicles and the design of the wind turbines. To achieve such a connection the turbines close to the roads harnesses energy through the air movement left behind by the passing vehicles. Its ability to activate the site on human contact as well as responding to the site’s environment (wind condition) proves that gateway designs ought to consider social and environmental demands on top of being aesthetically pleasing.

PROGRAM CONNECTION
THE IDEA BEHIND THE DESIGN CONCEPT IS TAKEN FROM HOW MPORTANT THE SITE IS FOR MELBOURNE & GEELONG AS WELL AS THE PEOPLE OF WYNDHAM. THE AIM OF THE DESIGN IS TO HEIGHTEN IT’S SIGNIFICANT THROUGH THE EXPLORATION OF “RECONNECTION”. THE IDEA IS TO PROVOKE A SENSE
OF PLACE FOR THE COMMUNITY & THOSE PASSING THE SITE THROUGH MEANS OF INTERACTION
