Wimbledon Car Boot 4

Great again as per usual! We mostly tried to collect research this time as this is the main thing we are lacking, so books, illustrations etc were at the top of our priority. We left with a fair few interesting books that can be put into the installation either as ripped-out pages or in their entirety.

Other things we got include:

Super 8 Camera


A eumig which looked in good working order but we have later realised it has a cracked and loose filter inside. We may try and use it anyway.

Speakers

A pair of 1970's sanyo speakers in great condition for only £1, not necessary but couldn't resist! Im sure we will use them in some way or another.

Trunk

Materials

We have now collected a few key bits of scrap metal to build the machines out of.

Square Tank




James got this square metal tank from near his home in Somerset, it will be great for the boot machine due to its size and aged aesthetic. The fact that it is metal will ensure we attain the sound we are looking to achieve through this machine.

Boiler




I got hold of a boiler from a family friend back in Southampton. It could be used as the body of the Praxinoscope machine. It is copper and it would be interesting to investigate ways of ageing it prematurely so that it will tarnish and become greener in colour.
