TIME-BASED CONSEQUENCE OF THE WAVERING LANDSCAPE


8.00am, Rule will measure and cater to the low tide, providing layers of steps for birds to climb up the isle.


12.pm high tide: Revolvers that buried under water revolve themselves rapidly under torrents of water, generating light and heat to attract birds.


The landscape blurred terribly under fiesty windy weather, some parts in the mechanism in the ruler will rise to shelter the birds from being blown away.


Rainy days:the entire apparatus violates itself, collecting energy to generate turbulence.


Hot days: the apparatus swells, promoting air currents exchange between the isle and water to optimise the living conditions of birds.


Frozen days: this apparatus utilises tidal water to revolve, generating energy to create a small non-freezing area,favoured by the birds.

callibrating the shoreline of the lagoon

In this step i will focu on the idea of designing a 'ruler' that measures
and callibrates the shoreline of the lagoon as it fluctuates. develop
and detail what this ruler is measuring and who could inhabit it, for
example, it could be a landing strip for a particular species of
migrating bird, whereby plant and seed the infrastructure of the
ruler to attract the birds.



The ruler measures and calibrates the shoreline, generating a blurring landscape under the influence of tide and wind.


These revolving objects spin themselves at different rates according to water velocity and they close and open frequently, adjusting to water level that supports them.



The landing mechanism utilises instant release of elastic energy to move and vibrate itself, making it a dynamic landing platform to attract and help birds during taking off.


Time-based model of the landing platform from 0.00second-5.20second.
