An attempt to create another petal like that of Artichoke #1 resulted in this monk-like shape. The new machine was inspired by memories of the Borobudur temple in Indonesia where a series of circular terraces invite one to a slow and deliberate walking meditation.

  • @MrJrhather and @srp1313 This is an art piece. What is the point of calling it boring? It is obviously an attempt to communicate something, as all art is. It is a beautiful invention by a very clever mind. Even if you don't appreciate it, why would you bother posting that it is boring? Let it be.

  • i love it

    

  • @MrJrhather yeah, it is kind of boring

  • boring.

  • I like the mechanic's under the table more, then the little walking petal.

  • It reminds me of a Chinese kyon-shi vampire...

  • The sensation of loneliness also something about the viewing distance and the scale of the components. I think if you view the machine from far away, you'll get a much different effect than when it is presented like this, up close.
