“Wings of Freedom”: Petr Miturich and Aero-Constructivism

The article focuses on the aerodynamic experiments of Petr Vasil’evich Miturich (1887–1956), in particular his so-called letun, a project comparable to Vladimir Tatlin’s Letatlin, but less familiar. Miturich became interested in flight during the First World War, elaborating his first flying apparatus in 1918 before constructing a prototype and undertaking a test flight on 27 December 1921—which might be described as an example of Russian Aero-Constructivism (by analogy with Italian Aeropittura). Miturich’s basic deduction was that modern man must travel not by horse and cart, but with the aid of a new, ecological apparatus—the undulator—a mechanism which, thanks to its undulatory movements, would move like a fish or snake. The article delineates the general context of Miturich’s experiments, for example, his acquaintance with the ideas of Tatlin and Velemir Khlebnikov (in 1924 Miturich married the artist, Vera Khlebnikova, Velemir’s sister) as well as the inventions of Igor’ Sikorsky, Fridrikh Tsander, Konstantin Tsiolkovsky and other scientists who contributed to the “First Universal Exhibition of Projects and Models of Interplanetary Apparatuses, Devices and Historical Materials” held in Moscow in 1927.

“自由之翼”:Petr Miturich 和航空建构主义

这篇文章着重于 Petr Vasil'evich Miturich (1887–1956) 的空气动力学实验,特别是他所谓的letun,这个项目可与 Vladimir Tatlin 的Letatlin相媲美,但不太为人所知。米图里奇在第一次世界大战期间对飞行产生了兴趣,他在 1918 年研制出他的第一台飞行装置,然后在 1921 年 12 月 27 日建造了原型并进行了试飞——这可以被描述为俄罗斯航空建构主义的一个例子(类似于意大利的Aeropittura)。米图里奇的基本推论是,现代人出行不能靠马车,而必须借助一种新的生态装置——波荡器——一种由于其起伏运动而可以像鱼或蛇一样移动的机构。文章描述了 Miturich 实验的一般背景,例如,他对 Tatlin 和 Velemir Khlebnikov 的想法的了解(1924 年 Miturich 与艺术家 Vera Khlebnikova 结婚,Velemir 的妹妹)以及 Igor' Sikorsky、Fridrikh Tsander 的发明,康斯坦丁·齐奥尔科夫斯基和其他科学家为 1927 年在莫斯科举行的“第一届世界星际仪器、设备和历史材料项目和模型展览”做出了贡献。
