Calliope Borealic was inspired by its location in Anchorage, Alaska. The sculpture contains houses and mining carts that reference the nearby Kennecott Mine, which was one of the biggest copper mines in Alaska, but closed in 1938 and became a popular ghost town. Within the tracks, visitors will see a white “Nodding” Polar Bear that reflects the local wildlife. The ball machine contains four different tracks, and visitors are able to interact with the sculpture by retrieving balls and moving them to six different locations. People can also turn a knob and release balls into the Loop-the-Loop. Inside the machine as devices such as a Rock Back, Chaos Wheel, Dumper, and musical elements like a xylophone bar and bells. On top of the ball machine is a 6 foot tall moire wheel.
Archimedean Excogitation is a dynamic ball machine sculpture exploring the theme of “a new way of seeing.” The sculpture uses visual and kinetic elements to explore how we see and offers new ways of looking at the world. This machine includes nearly thirty moving or sound-producing devices with two different ball sizes featuring billiard balls in the bottom section and small bowling balls in the top. Rising nearly thirty feet into the air, viewers enjoy the sculpture from the ground as balls and devices dance in front of them and over their heads. People on the nearby stair landing and balcony can also experience a unique view of the top section’s constellation of moving shapes spinning and twirling around the machine. This ball machine was designed by George Rhoads in collaboration with Rock Stream Studios.
While teaching people in an entertaining way is what we always try and do, telling a “story” in sequence was a new challenge for us—especially when the story educates doctors about the unusual way in which a type of drug goes to work inside a patient’s body! This machine was inspired by the creation of an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) medicine that helps patients with cancer. ADCs work differently than other therapies do. This machine was an attention-getting way to attract doctors to the company’s booth to learn about the journey of the ADC through the bloodstream, its binding with a cell-surface receptor, and how it enters the cell to attack the cancer. The machine will be displayed at other medical conferences in the future.
