The ATKN project is a kind of wind operated camera. It transmits images from one location to the other according to the energy generated by the windmill. Somewhere in the movie presenting the project, it states :

AIR = COMMUNICATION, WIND&ENERGY

Anyways, this made me think, wouldn't it be nice to make a windmill which makes sound, and not like a windorgan or anything, but a windmill that speaks! Or kind of. Like the apparatus by Von Kempelen.wikipedia:Wolfgang_von_Kempelen

C.A.E.S.

Wow and there is even a fancy name for it : Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) is a way to store energy generated at one time for use at another time. At utility scale, energy generated during periods of low energy demand (off-peak) can be released to meet higher demand (peak load) periods. [C.A.E.S.]

No wings on it yet, but you can already see the shape of the wings. Again based upon the Ed Lenz model. This time with 3 wings like the original. Idea is to have it drive a air pump (used to inflated car tires. The electronics of the pump are removed. Only the piston I kept, this will be driven by the windmill.
