| England New Order - World in Motion |
 |
'World in Motion was the official song for
England in the World Cup 1990. Co-written
with the British comedian, Keith Allen, it
became New Order's first number one song
ever.'
What a song what a song, and what a video as
well, even though its abit dated (John
Barnes, Gary Lineker etc.) Its still good to
watch.

Invented by Mr. Reidar Finsrud, the whole
machine is placed inside a glass mount, to
prevent visitors who view the machine in the
gallery from touching it.
A steel ball (about 2.7 inch diameter, 20
pound) is rolling on an aluminum track, about
25 inches in diameter, placed horizontally.
Three pendulums, about 45 inches long with
tunable weights at the lower end, controls
three horse-shoe magnets that the steel ball
has to pass by on the track. Embedded in the
track is a (mechanical) controlling/timing
mechanism. It looks like a steel wire bent
into a triangular track, 5 inches long. The
ball rolls over it and pushes the wire down
through a slot in the track. This affects one
of the pendulums and regulates its swinging
motion. The steel ball has not stopped
revolving for months.
I would like to thank tiroirdelmare for
making the footage longer, so you can get an
idea of how it works, Thanks tiroirdelmare :)
