Thread Geometries


This is the starting point for a kit that allows to visualize geometric forms by using thread (along with some other things).


Components:

- camera with "B" mode
- tripod
- wooden plate
- some screwable hooks
- LED
- button battery
- piece of paper
- clamp
- two magnets
- a transparent plastic bowl
- thread

How to use it:
1. Screw in as many hooks as you like
2. Insert a certain length of thread
3. Connect the LED, the button battery and the clamp
4. Put the plastic bowl above the installation and put the magnets in place
5. Set up the camera, darken the room, trigger the camera and move the clamp!
