ONE REVOLUTION PER MINUTE - a short film by Erik Wernquist from Erik Wernquist on Vimeo.
ONE REVOLUTION PER MINUTE is a short film that I made to explore my fascination with artificial gravity in space.
1 RPMで惑星の周回軌道上を自転する宇宙コロニー。その居住空間と景観をイメージした短編SF。Christian Sandquistによる壮大な音楽が良い
It takes place aboard the "SSPO Esperanta" - a planetary orbiter that spins around itself at a rate of one revolution per minute (1 RPM). With a radius of 450 meters, the spin generates artificial gravity with an effect of approximately 0.5 g along its main deck.
With the "Esperanta" I wanted to create a leisure-like environment, like a hotel or a cruise ship, and explore what the views could be like from inside when it visited some of the worlds in our solar system. I was also particularly interested in finding out how light and shadows from the sun played around in the interior as it spun around.
For those reasons I decided early on to keep all artificial lights off - with the exception of some emergency lights to avoid complete darkness - and only let natural light illuminate the interiors. As this made the place appear quite desolate, I found it interesting to imagine someone being onboard…
