The bubble-gum series includes shots of wads of gum stretched between buildings, and the giant-looking bubbles. The chewing gum is real, chewed, chewing gum and, in the pictures, there appears to be a lot, but I only used a few packages for the entire series of thirty installations. I blew the biggest bubbles I could and then put the gum very close to the camera, about thirty centimetres away, to make it appear giant. Gum is such a common material that the contrast between these small wads of it and the big sculptures being shown at the biennale — and just the cultural weight of Venice — was great. | The bubble-gum series includes shots of wads of gum stretched between buildings, and the giant-looking bubbles.

- | The meeting of bionics with pneumatics is found again and again in the new ideas for using air in the Bionic Learning Network. The hovercraft is a perfect example of highly precise manoeuvring over land and water.\\ | + | |
- | The mode of operation of the thrust control system developed by students of Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences is reminiscent of the guidance principle of a tracked vehicle. The air produced by the propeller is split into two channels. Each of these channels has a pair of flaps that behave like the thrust-reversing system of a turbo-drive and are able to steplessly adjust the portion of the air discharged backward or forward. Braking manoeuvres and reverse travel are therefore possible without difficulty.\\ | + | |
