Dirty Panties Tornado was created at the invitation of Andrew Hustwaite for Milk of Magnesia at Hope St Studios.  
Thank you to the hundreds of women who generously donated their dirty panties and any women in Melbourne who had underwear go missing between January and May 2011.  

Construction of the Dirty Panties Tornado was made possible by Andrew Hustwaite and the special technical assistance of Dean Schulz and Stuart Beekmeyer.  Thanks also to Ngoc Nguyen, Roland Dymond, Erica Canever, Jacqui Gibbons, Bonnie Lane, Mary-Lou Howie and the dancers at Isabelle's Academy of Tap.
