Take a Break: Strandbeest Evolution



 My brother recently send me a video link with the comment, I am still fascinated by the wind-propelled plastic creatures of Theo Jansen on the beaches of Holland. Totally mesmerizing, it's incredible eye candy. 
 
 Theo Janesn is a Dutch artist who started in 1990 building large mechanisms out of PVC that are able to move on their own and, collectively, are entitled, Strandbeest. They resemble walking animals, or artificial life as Jansen calls them.Check out his website for lots more about this unique art project and watch more videos.
