Video Friday - Wind Powered Knitting Machine

July 3rd, 2009

As I sweep the dust off this blog, I promise you I’m still out there! I have been in the process of moving these past couple of weeks and am just now settling down in my new digs with my fiancee.

I hope to begin making regular posts again after the holiday weekend.

Today, I bring you a link to a wind powered knitting machine, cranking out scarves in the breeze.

There is a nice little video embedded at the bottom of that page. Check it!

Please check out this awesome short film by Terri Timely called Synesthesia (titled after the same condition which “is a neurologically based phenomenon in which stimulation of one sensory or cognitive pathway leads to automatic, involuntary experiences in a second sensory or cognitive pathway.” Like biting into an apple and rather than tasting just the apple, you experience the color green. Or hear a bit of a song in your head.)
