Abstract
The present invention concerns an apparatus for generating a variable or rotating air disturbance with the use of a plurality of filaments controlled by actuators. The filaments are configured to create a movable air disruption that does not require extensive infrastructure to operate and is sufficiently small as to be portable by an individual. The present invention incorporates computer controlled actuators and nozzles to generate programmable air disturbance patterns.
