Maker Faire Bay Area 2009
Soma

Location:   West Lot  WL13   

A fantastical sculpture that translates the anatomy of neurons into metal, fire and light; magnifying the microscopic world to an epic scale. For Maker Faire, we have a partial installation of Soma's central elements: the cell nucleus. This is a counter spinning rotating ball of fire; 6' tall; enclosed within a stainless steel dodecahedron.
