Entry: How does Dyson make water go uphill? Tuesday, May 22, 2007



The ascending device of the water of James Dyson was the seizing image of the exposure of this year of flower of Chelsea. But how did make? It beats certainly your device of communal ground or water of garden. Inventor James Dyson, it of the vacuum cleaner bagless, stole the titles of the gardeners to the exposure of this year of flower of Chelsea with his “false garden”. A whole of four slopes of glass placed in a water of exposure of place clearly travelling to the top of each one of them before it pours in addition to top, to only start still at the bottom of the next slope. It is a sight which defies logic, and became probably the most memorable image of the exposure of this year. Mr. Dyson says that its inspiration was a diagram by the Dutch artist MC Escher (it of the Gothic palates where the soldiers walk eternally in top, and of the models where the birds transform themselves into fish). “One of the latter is an optical illusion which shows ascending and round water active and round the four sides of a place perpetually,” he says [see the bonds of Internet]. “I wanted to create a series of cascades which all are on the same level - an eternal water fall. ”
