Homage to the Art of Science is a freestanding monumental sculpture. In the lower section, small balls activate a series of sound and motion devices. The balls move on 1 of 4 tracks engaging devices such as bells, Xylo bars, chimes, and a mirror that each produces unique sounds. The lower section includes 6 interactive stations. Visitors can turn an auger to raise a ball, release a dumper full of balls, and introduce them into the Double Bounce & Catch. With this device, two visitors are required to coordinate their efforts with the possibility of balls colliding.
