1% Adrenaline, 99% Frustration, by Sónia Ralha Magalhães
This project consists of an multiaverage installation, that has as reference the Ydreams, particularly Ywalk (exp: Virtual Garden) and in the set of documents “Become Intercept” of the National Geographic, where in we come across them on the other hand with the horror of the destruction, each more permanent time which had the global heating and for the other with the inactive search for the adrenalin when trying to enter in a Tornado.
This installation consists of a dark room that will count a interactive carpet, where the visitor is invited to enter and to interact in a Tornado. The heading of project is allusive to the set of documents, a description of what it is the attempt to enter in this force of the nature.
The tornado is composed of words (dialogues of films, made withdrawals from Youtube) that are constant and rotation. The purpose of entering into the visitor is made and thus step it, but a webcam at the top of the room, near the projector, captures the movement changing the path of the tornado. There are highlighted words that appear randomly (11 of 11 words) and are the only ones that can be trampled when we steeped their, they made the turn in a video projected on the carpet. This contains images of representations made to: machines, washing, ladders in snail, wand to the grating soup, etc.

1.2 Book: Cricheton, Michael; (2004), Been of Panic, Dom Quixote, Lisbon
Synopsis
“Expert in mixing scientific facts and suspense, Michael Crichton writes what if he can describe as echo-thriller. He takes us of Iceland to the Antartic, of the desert of Arizona Paris, of Los Angeles to the Islands of Salomão, stops showing in them that the next future can very be dominated well by echo-terrorists who scare in them with a great not-problem: the global heating. E that the species truily threatened of extinguishing can very be the species well human being. A alucinante history of the read writer more in the world.”
2.1 Video of the katrina.
The increase of the temperature makes with that bigger evaporation of waters of the oceans occurs, potencializando types of climatic catastrophes as hurricanes, tufões and cyclones.
Studies divulged in April of 2004 had looked for to demonstrate that the biggest intensity of storms was related with the increase of the temperature of the surface of the tropical band of the Atlantic. These factors would have been responsible, to a large extent, per the violent season of hurricanes registered in the United States, Mexico and also the Caribbean.
The United States are the parents with greater number of hurricane cases, example the Katrina hurricane, exactly thus, these parents seem immune before the situation, the hypocrisy of who in such a way provokes and nothing it makes to improve its proper parents, the United States had not signed the treat one to Kyoto for considering dangerous for its economy.
“In such a way, we could think that the global heating would be to them “advantageous”, therefore to enter in become and to apanhar giant waves, exactly being assemblies, has if become one it forms of I deal each looked time more”
The climatic changes cost 70 a thousand million.
Those that emits little gases that they provoke the greenhouse effect is the ones that more they suffer with climatic changes. But the responsible ones for the estragos greaters oppose to pay the account to it.
2.2 Film: National Geographic, (2005), Tornado intercept, cat. set of documents
During seven years, Sean Casey risked its life during the time of the become ones when trying to more than come close each time the deadly storm, until obtaining to get the last image of the interior of the “rodopiante funnel”.
Now it finds that its steel vehicle, proper to intercept become is the key to get what it wants, that only seems, that the hell arrived there first!
This innovative event of one hour goes to take it the heart of a become devastador, in a combination of the biggest advances of science with the technology of tip of the chambers to film, that it allows to catch incredible images of what happens in the interior of one of the deadliest natural fenómenos!
It testifies the construction and first use of the Become revolutionary Intercept Vehicle - 4 tons of armored plate, glasses to the test of bullet, chambers IMAX of last generation and one equip of cineastas for who the danger are its profession.
Km/h dives in the mortal zone of become capable to generate the 500 winds more than, with the investigators to risk its lives to film images never before seen of the interior of these monstrous storms.
Since incredible images generated for computer until what it is caught by the first armed vehicle of a chamber to penetrate in the Vortex of a Tornado, it is radical science and with much adrenalin, to the style of the National Geographic
For where they pass they leave a devastação track. The witnesses whom already they turn close these winds furious spirals describe its approach as of a frightful roar of a spurt engine. They exist wild as meteorologistas, scientists and photographers, whom they look to hunt these fenómenos for the world. The result is these beautiful images.
3.2 Game: Electronic Arts, (2007), SimCity.
The SimCity game, that has as objectivo the construction and maintenance of virtual cities, launched a new version recently where this patent the problem of the global heating.
The player has now to have ambient concerns in its city looking for to prevent risks caused for the excess of carbon emissions (the game goes emitting alerts on the threat of the diverse natural catastrophes, as droughts, Waves of heat, hurricanes and others that can attack and destroy its cities.)
SimCity stimulates the people to learn more on some of the causes and consequências of the global heating.
