A toy hygroscope in the form of a small house with figures of a man and woman standing in two porches, the man coming out of his porch in wet weather and the woman out of hers in dry.
Continuous thermograph records were made inside a standard weather house located on the floor of the greenhouse.
At this precise point, like a pair of wooden figures in a weather house, the previously afflicted partner will swing back out into the light, fully restored, sending the other back into the shadows.
That poor wooden couple lingering around the doorways of the weather house are spinning around like maniacs.
I felt like one of those midgets trapped in the weather house we had as a kid.
