Spin top = Rotation drawing

December.29.2013      DIN-A4      11.7 x 8.3 inch

Description

A spintop 'awakens' and 'lives' when momentum brings energy to his existence.

The more momentum, the more energy, the more balance, the more stability.

Not even a side impact can disturb a very fast turning spintop.

A philosopher would say, 'be like a spintop, but remember, that from time to time you need new energy '.

As a cyclist, I raise an eyebrow, when I learn that the stability of my two-wheeler is due to the centrifugal principle of a spintop. The faster the bike, the more stable it is...
