OMG: Kinetic sculpture at the BMW Museum


The technical wizards that work in Germany's motoring industry are clearly showing off with this clever bit of engineering. The sculpture is on show at the recently opened BMW Museum, in Munich. 714 metallic balls are attached to 714 pieces of monofilament (fishing line to you and I) which in turn are attached to 714 motors. The balls gracefully move around looking pretty before occasionally creating the shape of a classic car.

THREE LETTERS: WOW!
