MASDAR/WINDSTALK The project starts out as a desire, a whisper, like grasping at straws, clenching water. The project takes clues from the way the wind sways a field of wheat, or reeds in a marsh. The project consists of 1203 stalks, 55 meters high, anchored on the ground with concrete bases that range between 10 to 20 meters in diameter. The stalks are made of carbon fiber reinforced resin poles, 30 cm in diameter at the base and 5 cm at the top. The top 50 cm of the poles are lit up by an LED lamp that glows and dims depending on how much the poles are swaying in the wind. When there is no wind–when the poles are still–the lights go dark.
