Sorry I don't recognise the name.
Certainly demonstrates the mechanical resistance the Futurenergy alternator has.
I also found this 'intersting'idea hung from a tree...

Nice idea,
But a turbine needs to be fixed rigid to make the best use of all the wind energy, most of the energy is wasted pushing the wheel to and fro I guess.
I suppose it could be anchored down at the base also with cable, not as good as a tower.
