Moon Ride
Assocreation (AT)
Cyclists will convene on Linz’s Main Square where they’ll hook up their bikes to one of the many generators set up there waiting for them to provide the muscle power needed to charge a giant battery. Each revolution of every set of pedals moves the battery charge indicator a little closer to full. After sundown, the cyclists’ output will be switched directly to the balloon; the harder they pedal, the brighter the artificial moon glows in the night sky. The humming of the muscle-powered generators will spread out a blanket of sound across the square. The battery that was charged up during the day discharges through the night and lets the moon gently set over Linz.
