VortexArt88 is an open hardware water purifier replacing chemicals with biomimetic fluid dynamics. Using 3D-printed mirror-imaged golden ratio nozzles, it drives counter-rotating flows inside a clear figure-8 tank. Where the currents collide, they create an aerating "water singularity." Centrifugal force traps sediment, while heavy aeration and fluid shear destroy anaerobic bacteria. Blueprints are fully open-source for global replication under copyleft CERN-OHL-S terms.
