Odyssey - Journey through the Oldenburg railway station district

Odyssey - Journey through the Oldenburg railway station district

The "bicycle ship", which I designed, constructed and built for the production "Odyssee" of the Kulturetage for this year's Kultursommer.
Here you can see a version with 12 "rowing" seats for the theater guests.
In front sits Jason, the helmsman. Behind him, sitting against the direction of travel, Odysseus, who tells of his adventures.
Built from bicycle frame of the company Mifa-Biria (model Post-Bike "Swing")
The ship can be extended almost endlessly. It consists of a headboard and individual "body" links, similar to a worm, which can be hung one behind the other by means of towbars and balls. As a result, it is movable like a centipede and requires a turning circle of only about 5 m in diameter!!!
(Draft and design are patent pending)

Idea: Anja Quentin
