so fake!! you can see the strings.... :( nut if you hade made more speial effect and remove the strings with your computer it would be better ;) nice show tough...

@xxnickeyxx1 are you serious? its not a fucking magic light show made to trick you.

The reason it's impressive is the fact that that fluid motion was created in real life, using carefully timed mechanics, 50,000 pieces and probably a lot of math. Erasing the "strings" would basically turn it into a computer simulation, (which probably would have been significantly easier for them to make)

@xxnickeyxx1 its a kinetic sculpture?

Not to take away from the breathtaking art, but who composed this hypnotically inducing instrumental and is it available for purchase. I must have played this video 20 times. Soooo relaxing to watch and listen

mesmerizing. I love inspirational science.

[agentbong138]

[quankquank]

Very cool, to make such an array of material seem organic and alive! It seemed to me to have its own personality even.
