Partial transcription of the video
“In this lesson. we will delve deeper into understanding cranks and their application in our upcoming final project. Typically. a crank is recognized as a component that converts rotational motion into linear or vice versa by applying torque at one end to move a connected rod. Physically. what distinguishes a crank? is the shift of its rotation center towards one of the ends. This shift distance can vary based on the mechanical effort exerted in our mechanical setup. The principle of leverage applies here. affecting the Here. the principle of leverage also applies. That is. the greater the d...”

A course by Eduardo Salzane
Graduated in social communication from Unesp, artist Eduardo Salzane has already worked with authorial photography, puppet theater and some circus modalities before specializing in the universe of automatons — sculptures that move from a crank.
He has given workshops at different institutions throughout Brazil and his works have been exhibited in several galleries in the interior of São Paulo and at the Ecomuseum of Itaipu, in Foz do Iguaçu. Currently, he develops his work with reused wood and creates a universe of poetry in motion in each of his pieces.
