THE WINDMILL FACTORY
manufactures sublime experience where the audience is king. We are a creative collective based in Brooklyn, NY making interactive installations, performances, and events.
Our projects have ranged from choreographing Nine Inch Nails 2013 Festival Tour; Castle of Shadows, a shadow play on a castle wall in Cartagena, Colombia for Agencia National Hydrocarbons; Balloon Vortex an interactive installation at MIT’s Media Lab & Red Bull; Reflecting the Stars, a recreation of the night sky in the Hudson River; Balls Deep an adult ball pit from 300 exercise balls at Burning Man 2013; The Wedge, a massive slide/aerial performance center for Burning Man 2009.
Our work is featured internationally and has been acclaimed by WIRED, Rolling Stone, SPIN, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, NBC News, The Creators Project and featured in many international publications.
The goal of our work is to spark a “sublime art pause” for the public. Perhaps this inspiration comes from Don Quixote’s quest for sublime adventure, a desire for danger driven goose bumps, a love of slapstick, or a battle with the inexplicable.
Perhaps these varied inspirations bring our varied works. We want you to laugh, to be moved, to interact with our work. To be inspired by it’s complicité between power and fragility, humor and fear, beauty and utility. We want you to question how you view community, landscape, existence.
Perhaps it brings insight to a pressing issue, explores nature’s battle with human nature, reveals an undiscovered place or time, or is simply fun to slide down.
Regardless, we hope our work brings greater beauty to the world.
