NEW UNUSUAL RESULTS IN PERPETUAL MOTION JULY 2021
July 08, 2021: Experiment with the so-called Avant-Garde Escher Machine, a version of the Escher
“magic angle” principle incorporating a lightweight counterweighted lever.
The results of this experiment were that upward motion took place at a particular engagement with the
special-angled wire in a very exact position, when the wheel was also engaged with the backboard next
to the wire. Later in the video it is shown in this case that the counterweight applying pressure has less
effective leverage than the wheel, due to a specific distance and mass of approximately 55% to 75% of
the wheel (combined leverage and mass).
This image (ABOVE) shows the position in which rightward motion occurs due to the counterweight and
Escher principle. The critical thing is shown at the end of the video, that when measured conservatively
with a penny lifting the lower end, the level still shows upward sloped. The working level is shown here:
What is more surprising to most scientists may be that the specific effective mass of the counterweight
suggests that no net torque is being applied to the wheel in spite of it’s upward motion. This is meant to
show that the wheel is being acted on by an unconventional principle: the Escher Machine (“magic
angle”).
It is shown in the same video that the same wheel dropped to the right or left of the track is able to lift
the counterweight very easily and even while showing HIGHLY NEGLIGIBLE TORQUE. See images below:
ABOVE: Wheel dropped to the right has minimal torque (motion may be exaggerated by the picture size)
ABOVE: When the wheel is dropped to the left of the track the same motion occurs, indicating HIGHLY
NEGLIGIBLE TORQUE, except when the wheel is positioned on the track using the property of the Escher
Machine (“magic angle”).
NOW WE WILL MOVE TO SOME EARLIER EXPERIMENTS
JULY 6, 2021: Success with Modular Escher. A goal since 2014, an attempt to create repeated
modules with movement in the upward sloped direction largely shows the effectiveness of the
Escher Machine (“magic angle”) concept.
ABOVE: First Image of the Modular Escher. Motion clearly takes place.
ABOVE: Measuring conservatively, it looks as if (AS INTENDED), there is repeated upward motion
from rest (AS INTENDED). LEFT IMAGE: The initial motion, which occurs from rest, may be
upwards-directed, given that the marble remains above the wire. RIGHT IMAGE: The secondary
motion which occurs after deflection by the bent straw into the wide end of the second wire,
may also be upwards directed (in this case, strongly), due to the creation of a second Escher
module utilizing (AGAIN) special angularities.
JUNE 12, 2021: Success moving a heavier ball longer distance using a lighter ball. In this
nifty view of angularity, it was shown a proportional difference of angular application can be
as effective as differences of mass, and even compounded with support advantages.
LEFT: Before the application of the smaller, lighter ball. RIGHT: After application, the larger
ball is seen to move longer distance.
ABOVE: Critically, the larger ball is able to return automatically when the small ball is
removed, suggesting that there is no additional force other than the smaller ball’s leverage,
mass, and angle contributing to the earlier movement. RIGHT: Smaller ball was lighter.
OCTOBER 20, 2020: Unnatural Torque. Perhaps the result that will draw the most skepticism.
A particular engagement of plastic toys seemed to result in a differentiation of torque
simply by the angle at which a counterweight was positioned. This was ruled to be a result
of either differences of passive encountered resistance (?) or a specific way the fulcrum was
differentiated to be engaged with the angle of the track in relation to the counterweight.
It is thought it may apply to self-powered cars. As recently as 2009 it was thought ‘so-called
real torque’ was not possible.
ABOVE: In this configuration, the bar can be pushed low, but only when the weight is not
turned. RIGHT: When the weight is turned, the bar begins to move upwards.
ABOVE: The bar naturally moves upwards when the counterweight on the short end is turned.
I have made a list of all the absolute requirements that must be followed. It turns out they are all
required, it was a bit of a lucky experiment: (1) Supports for fulcrum are about 2X back, 1X front, angled
at 45 degrees downwards from fulcrum, (2) Fulcrum is supported by a vertical pin attached to a
horizontally 45-degree angled fixture which can rotate 360 degrees within the fulcrum unless inhibited
by the lever, (3) 45-degree angled fixture is also supported at close distance inside the length of the
fulcrum bar by a fixed hole running parallel to the lower end hole on the fulcrum support bar. (4) The
fulcrum support bar runs between the lower and upper ends beneath the 45-deg angled fixture and is
NOT firmly connected to the fulcrum pin AND NOT firmly connected to the pin rotating sideways and
supporting the fulcrum pin, the lever also rotates laterally at a specific angle due to the angle of the
entire apparatus, (5) The upper end of the fulcrum supports is supported by over 0.5 inches maybe
significantly more of additional height underneath, various angles should be tested to maximize utility,
(6) The back end on the lower side is supported as shown by a different 0.25 in approx. additional height
which may be very shallow, but seems to help, (7) Short end of lever is heavier, (8) Long end has small
amount of weight, (9) Weight on short end is attached ABOVE the short end of the lever, and can be
turned 45 degrees vertically towards the lower end to create motion, (10) Longer end is supported by
very smooth bar at significantly lower altitude than the fulcrum, (11) The smooth bar is kept some
distance inside the length of the long end and the lever itself is smooth and straight, (12) The smooth
support bar is kept at a sufficiently shallow angle as to allow motion to take place. (13) It may help to
rotate the entire device slightly counterclockwise from above to achieve the ideal lever position.
The device was successfully reconstructed 2021-07-12, giving the detail above (here the long end is
pictured above the fulcrum, the secondary motion of the long end would be to the right).
As viewed from above, this would be the appearance. Note the additional layer of cardboard
underneath one of the four supports, and the particular lengths of the supports, which seemed to be
necessary.
October 19, 2020. Experiment with the Exponential Balance.
This experiment was inspired by something similar to a rocket which launches from a counterweighted
platform. When the rocket returns, the weight of the rocket is able to lift the counterweight, even
though the counterweight initially caused some assistance. The principle is similar to a permanent
spring.
In this first photo we can see the dramatic effects of acceleration from the secondary balance when
downward force is applied to the opposite end of the first balance. Again, both balances are close to
equilibrium though this may not be necessary.
In this second photo (BELOW) It is shown that because of a piece of duct tape attached to the first lever
on the right, and enhanced by the less necessary fact that the second balance only equilibrizes part way,
the weight of the tape is enabled to return the first balance to its lower position in spite of the
acceleration.
Thus, the acceleration is repeatable with no additional energy other than duct tape which permits the
return.
