There is a wind tunnel on the roof of Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK). It serves as a laboratory for the Research Focus in Transdisciplinarity (fsp-t) in a variety of ways: as a meeting place between the arts and sciences, between disciplines, as a place of thought, imagination and tangible interaction, and as a place of performance and experimentation. The wind tunnel is a metaphor machine. It is located explicitly on the roof of ZHdK and under the clouds – between a garden, a terrace and a elevated railway line. Its doors can be opened and its black curtains can be closed. Its smoke alarm operates in garage mode. For a long time, it served as an escape route. Its house address is 8.C02. The laboratory is open to interested parties who would like to perform their own experiments, e.g. with the wind.
