X Site

We worked closely with the artist Javid Jah to bring X site to life. The project involved developing a large scale mechanism that allows the user to spin a flywheel , using human power to spin a 6000lb shipping container. X site uses the movement of the containers to follow specific constellations while projecting sacred geometry and frequency matching the planets movements in the sky.
