Orbiting, Rotating Kinetic Magic

May 26, 2017/ Tommy

This thing is mesmerizing, totally mesmerizing. This is the Gräjjs 5.1, a kinetic sculpture from builder gonkius, and it's a sight to behold. I can't imagine how much trial and error it took to get all these nested mechanisms to coexist in such a tight but elegant space. Check out the video to see it in motion.
