kritische masse (2008)
for balloons, drip counters and prepared ping pong balls
by serge baghdassarians

inflated balloons produce an air pressure which is compressed and regulated into a linear airstream by tubes of drip counters.  exiting from this "windway", the stream is directed against a gap in a ping pong ball which causes the column of air within the  ball to oscillate at a frequency.
duration: approx. 2-3h
