Dancing Cranes at Sentosa, Singapore (full, HD, good color)

Video recorded February 2011, a couple of months after initial show opening,
completely does not do justice to the full in-person impression of the artwork which features a remarkable and mesmerizing performance with a flawless combination of powerful precision robotics, light, music, video animation on the LED displays that cleverly forms the birds' chests and eyes, and water effects that forms their luminous wings.

Highly recommended: If at all you have a chance to come see it for yourself, do experience it firsthand. The free show is every night at 9pm, at Resort World Sentosa, by the Harborfront, in Singapore.

The robotic birds weigh more than 75 tons each (according to some articles the whole thing is 500 tons altogether), and when fully stretched out the birds are up to 30 meters tall, or 9 stories. The concept was designed by artist and set designer Jeremy Railton, with execution by McLaren Engineering Group.
