: I am an artist working with the Dead Sea, which is the lowest place on earth.
: The project,"The Dead Sea Sail Boat: Clear Sailing Into the 21st
: Century" is a metaphoric voyage to clear up the problems of the 20th
: Century at the onset of the 21st Century. The kayak's form is very close
: to the current, evaporated shape of The Dead Sea. I have raised some
: money,have the connections for access to sail on and shipping to the Dead
: Sea. There is also a plastics company that will donate the plastic. My
: biggest problem is how to,where to and who will build the actual boat. The
: ideal situation would be to have a sponsor, either private or corporate,
: to back the project with their expertise and building
: abilities, who would enjoy working on an art project that hopes to inspire
: peace. HELP
What an interesting project. I often say, "Who would have thought the 21st Century would be like THIS!". Ideally, the plastic company would give you insight into fabrication; right? How do you shape it: with heat over a mold, a vacuum table??? We could help you build the mold but you don't see much in the way of thermoplastics here. I'd love to follow the project anyway.
