Wind Tunnel Models
We call our wind tunnel on the roof of ZHdK a model (Dombois, 2017), because it is more than just an aerodynamic wind tunnel. “[T]he model produces more than it contains.” (Wartofsky, 1979). And sometimes, we create a model of this model. This keeps the thinking in motion and accelerates our understanding.
The models were built by various artists and can be borrowed by interested parties for exhibition and demonstration purposes.
