<div id="urb-ads-toc-box" class="post-ads-toc-box urb-ads-toc" style="display:none;"></div><p><!--wsa:gooold-->It&rsquo;s a spider web so large, a human family could set up furniture and make a home inside of it. But this stunningly sticky creation is no work of nightmarish monster spiders &ndash; it&rsquo;s an art installation made of packing tape by <a href="http://www.foruse.info/index_in.htm%20">design collective For Use/Numen</a>.</p>
<p><span id="more-22258"></span></p>
<p><a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/spiderweb-installation-2.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-22260" title="spiderweb-installation-2" alt="" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/spiderweb-installation-2.jpg" width="468" height="313"></a></p>
<p>With its long, hollow tubes suspended five feet in the air from surrounding walls and pillars, the packing tape cocoon is like a giant artistic bounce house/jungle gym for adults, who can crawl inside and lounge around, comfortably supported by 117,000 feet and 100 pounds of tape.</p>
<p></p><div class="video-box"><iframe type="text/html" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/JjeT5Z63HYk?rel=0" frameborder="0" webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen allowfullscreen></iframe></div>
<p>&ldquo;The installation is based on an idea for a dance performance in which the form evolves from the movement of the dancers between the pillars,&rdquo; <a href="http://www.fastcompany.com/1656197/designers-create-spiderman-worthy-cave-from-packing-tape?partner=rss">For Use&rsquo;s Christoph Katzler told Fast Company</a>, who produced this video. &ldquo;The dancers are stretching the tape while they move, so the resulting shape is a recording of the choreography.&rdquo;</p>
<p><a href="#" data-featherlight="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/spiderweb-packing-tape-4.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-22261" title="spiderweb-packing-tape-4" alt="" src="https://weburbanist.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/spiderweb-packing-tape-4.jpg" width="468" height="312"></a></p>
<p>The project &ndash; which has grown progressively larger, starting in a small Croatian gallery and then inside an abandoned attic before moving on to the former Viennese stock exchange building pictured &ndash; will get a bigger stage than ever in September when it travels to a public space in the center of Frankfurt, Germany.</p>
