The giant fan was created by Breeze Makers, the same company which created the wind effects for the movie Twister . The machine is a part of the entire AirPlay exhibit, which allows visitors to explore the awesome effects of the air around us. Visitors will enter the exhibit with an array of fluttering fabrics and kites surrounding them. The Aeolian Landscape display reveals how the winds change an entire landscape in our sand dune environment. An air maze allows visitors to use rotating fans to race a ball down a winding course.
Visitors can fire a cannonball of air and see the resulting depression on a sequined background.
Answering these questions and more is a breeze for those attending AirPlay, an interactive exhibition at the South Florida Science Museum which will run through Dec. 2. Kids under three and museum members are admitted free. The South Florida Science Museum is located on the north end of Dreher Park, east of I-95, between Forest Blvd. and Southern Blvd., off Summit.
