Intermingled
standing waves can be passedaround in this windribboning configuration:
networked
windribbons among birch trees (
sketch, top view )
A
single triaxial sensor positioned at the main Windribbon node
(T) has 3 analogue
ins/outs. Eight potential standing waves caused by wind and trunk
movements can have their vibrations passedaround in either direction
and to adjacent strandage via bowed and clampable stainless steel
"bridges"
(( __) . Individual
positions may be dampened for listening to a particular configuration
of standing wave monitorings. The
could possibly be used to introduce
simultaneous ambience.
Any
section requiring in/or/output mode may be de-coupled from an
adjacent strand. Intermingled standing waves are the essence
of this windribbon version. Total strandage will be devided
among these eight tree trunks . 1/2 inch brass, galvanized and stainless steel
wire of varying gauges are to be used between tree pairs. Solar-powered,
quad-FM-sends and self-broadcasting-tree capabilities are planned.

A
windribboning
sound
source depends upon separately joined trees consisting of two
or more being clustered together and including a compliment of
1/2" brass and multiple gauges of galvanized and/or stainless
steel wires. return
