1. ESCULTURAS KINÉTICAS. . . . THEO JANSEN. . .
   (animales de playa para caminar, hechos de tubos de pvc).

   Escultor cinético y artista Theo Jansen construye ‘Strandbeests’ de tubos
   de plástico de color amarillo que es fácilmente disponible en su Holanda
   natal.

   Las graciosas criaturas evolucionan con el tiempo como Theo adapta sus
   diseños para aprovechar el viento de manera más eficiente. Ellos son
   alimentados sólo por el viento e incluso almacenar parte de la energía del
   viento en botella de plástico ‘estómagos’ para ser utilizado cuando no hay
   viento.

   environment and move forever.*

5. Ah, now. That’s #innovation and #art rolled into one…so cool! The
   StrandBeest

6. Blacks just don’t build things like this.

11. Check out this video on YouTube: truly amazing!! 

12. Those creations are BEAUTIFUL and fascinating! These, are great ideas that
    can be think upon and who knows?
    What the next generation can revolution this concept into something much
    greater!
    How I’d love to live to another 200 more years to see man’s invention
    evolved into something extraordinary.

14. It is amazing, to see art and science working together to form a creature
    that moves… I just thought of something incredible. Only a crazy
    scientist who perceives reality as an artist, will understand what I have
    envisioned. Look… if this artist has created a giant motion creature that
    resembles some type of a microscopic life entity that moves through the
    air… Is it possible that the whole of “Life on Earth” may be moved by
    wind the same way? And here is the most perplexing part of my imagination.
    It is in the Old Testament, Genesis 2:7 “Then the LORD God formed a man
    from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of
    life, and the man became a living being.” With “breath of life” and “wind”
    being almost the same energy that gives movement to the inanimate
    matter…?

15. Those machines are amazing, but he sounds so pretentious/crazy calling them
    “new forms of life.”

16. Kinetic sculptor and artist Theo Jansen builds ‘strandbeests’ from yellow
    plastic tubing that is readily available in his native Holland. They are
    powered by the wind.

17. sexist creatures ever!

18. Exelente estructura, tan dinámica.

19. A two year old to run out in from it, that walking circus will run people
    down

20. They’re amazing, but seriously, if you went to the beach at dusk and saw
    one of those from a distance it’d be pretty damn scary. 

21. Truly amazing

24. C’est tout simplement, magnifique et génial :)

25. If you are a science geek like me, then you will adore this!
