Mechanischer Körperfächer (body fan 2) - rebecca horn
"the fan suits my body -- i carry it and i
balance it on my shoulders so that head and shoulders constitute the
central axis of the two semi-circles -- starting position -- the two
semi-circles of the fan close over my head -- when i move my body's
balance, the two semi-circles change their horizontal starting position
and begin to turn -- one semicircle turns in fron of my body, the other
one behind it, so that my body becomes the fixed axis for the
semicircles -- when the rotation is slow, just sections of my body can
be seen by turn -- when the two semicircles rotate fast, they close in a
transparent circle."
