Wind Tunnel Deck

Title	Wind Tunnel Deck
Description	Much has been speculated about the ambiguity of artworks and their potential to weave themselves into different horizons of meaning. The present card game takes this observation seriously. It gives voice to the concepts, forces, actors, artefacts and happenings that have been operating around the Wind Tunnel by Florian Dombois and his research group at the Zurich University of the Arts since 2012, and focuses on their still open potentials. Each card is a space of possibility and each card constellation its multiplication, which transforms into a here and now in the act of play, in your hands. Editors: Florian Dombois, Marlene Wenger \| Graphic design: Viola Zimmermann, Zurich \| English-language editing: Kate Whitebread, Bern \| Image editing: Lutz Wendenburg, Essen The Wind Tunnel Deck will evolve and come back in different variations as a collaborative project between ZHdK and art&fiction. © 2022 Research Focus in Transdisciplinarity, ZHdK, and art&fiction, Lausanne \| © for the texts: the authors \| © for the images: see image credits \| Despite best efforts, we have not been able to identify the holders of copyright and printing rights for all the illustrations.

  Description
  Project your thoughts on me. Give me your thinking. I am an animus, a notion. I sit in the shade, on the roof of Toni Areal, Zurich, awaiting visitors. I whirr, suck and blow air, desire, whisper in a circle. Until thoughts arise. Your thoughts. I am the space to stage your experiments with the ever-moving wind, and yes, a laminar wind.

  Description
  Inflatable objects contain high pressure air. Wind tunnels circulate air at low pressure. I know the art of combining the two. I have been set up e.g. at Cabaret Voltaire, in the Museum of Design in Zurich and in the Alps below the Säntis. I pop up and change my surroundings. I am a hermaphrodite. Take a break with me, by me, through me.

  Description
  I am a wind sculpture by Florian Dombois, made of material from the abandoned islands of Venice. Many people helped to make me real. They sailed the lagoon on a dinghy with golden sails, collecting my backs and bones. I first appeared in the «Galleria del Vento» in the Research Pavilion, 2017. Later I lived in Caserma Pepe on the Lido. Even Google has seen me.

  You can play with me! (but you will never understand my rules). I am always there when a door opens. I connect high pressure with low pressure. I am a source of energy, you see that by my effects. If you stop me, I am gone.

  Description
  I am looking for shape, I am in your body. I circumnavigate the earth and re-generate myself continuously. My movements solve the Navier-Stokes-Equation, every particle in me is faster than your computer. Thales thought that I am the principle of everything. Oh, I love Thales.

  I am impossible to catch, I am here to show you the wind. Enjoy our complexity. Enjoy my tenderness, my plasticity. Sometimes I travel your lungs, your personal wind tunnel. Sometimes I signify fire, hahaha.

  I am invisible, until I meet you. Everything is invisible, until I meet you. The smoke is my friend. But the wind, I don't know, I find it obscure, I cannot read it.

  Description
  My neighbor is the wind. We both reside in your trachea. When he passes my entrance, House Larynx, we meet in the voice box. And both play around and blow around every single tone, vowel, consonant. We bring diphthongs into the world, viva! We always come together from your mouth. To be honest, I enjoy so much the time just before meaning arrives.

  Description
  Some people call me Ma. Some people don't see me and think that precisely this is my main quality. But the opposite is the truth. You cannot live without me. With me things start, with me things end. I can teach you everything, if you are willing. If you are not afraid.

  Description
  For you I am the ground of everything. Everything is on top of me. Actually I am everything. Everything can be art. I like ability. For a long time I was the fertile center of the universe. But I am not. I am a lonely planet flying through space, only one of many others. And I am a sounding body. And I sing. I have been singing for billions of years.

  FORCES: Conceptual
  Description
  Once you see me, think me! I have many layers of meaning, I am a model of second order and uncannily specific. I am a circular structure, I return things anew, I look empty, but contain movement, I appear as a sculpture, but I am a mold. And I am too big to be removed.
