In 2010 the Wellington Sculpture Trust commissioned Akau Tangi, a wind powered sculpture installed on Cobham Drive, Wellington. The eight poles, some partly submerged in the sea, are each topped with a rotating cone that produce a low level musical note. The rotating cones also have an internal light source powered by the wind driven rotating cones. In 2015, a feature film documentary titled Sonicsfromscratch (dir. by and Orlando Stewart), documenting Dadson's career, was premiered at the New Zealand International Film Festival.
