Kinetic sculptures from Reuben Margolin

The kinetic sculptures that are made by Reuben Margolin remind me of the work of Theo Jansen. The technical and philosophy aspects of Theo Jansen are better in my opinion. But Reuben Margolin makes a better show of it. Also i like the hypnotic and natural way his sculptures move. Anyway here is one of his "wave" movies.:
And here is a movie about the maker:

  1. Pretty, I want one, preferably a miniature one in a box.

  2. Cool. I was also thinking about a miniature desktop version. Also a nice way to show how a (sin) wave is related to a rotating point on a circle, even in more dimensions.
