[TCML] Hammertone coils at Palais de Tokio



All,

Hammertone made it to the top of the arts world.
By way of Kurt Schraner, I was approached by Swiss Artist Roman Signer to create a tesla coil that could deliver 1.2 meters of spark between 2 umbrella`s for his installation at Palais de Tokyo in Paris.
I have documented the coil over at 4HV.org, but a rundown here is in order:
It consists of 2 pcs. T-BRISG coils in a V-TWIN configuration, to visually resemble the JAP v-twin engine in the front of a Morgan sports car of 30ties vintage.

News hit the front page of the Danish empassy:

the danish newspaper Jyllands Posten:

There is a youtube thingy processing:

Peter Terren of downyonder fame delivered a lot of his pictures for the exhibition magazine.

Cheers, Finn Hammer
