Perhaps in a similar way to this experiment?

Watch out for more details (my own assignment handout) on Tuesday. For Sciencebase video fans, next Monday, we've got a special treat (well, I think it's special). A short global warming lecture with a difference from Austrian student Bernhard Steinerhoff.

Of all electrostatic generators, this one is the least intuitive - good for him making it an assignment to explain it. I haven’t seen one of these in years.
