While I was working on explorimg the ways in which wind energy can be captured, and translated to movement, I experimented with quite a few shapes."Batman" Kinetic sculpture is a result of one of them. Crafted out of lasercut acrllyic the blades represent the shape of the batman logo. Later the designs were also created in Aluminium sheet, 1mm thick. Both the acryllic and the aluminium were sanded over to give them a brushed finish. To ensure smooth movement even in the slightest of the winds 'zz' bearings were used, 6mm outer diameter. A 3mm Mild steel rod supports the blades and acta as the shaft.
"Batman", when its spinning under the wind gives the illusion of a 3D version of the logo.
