BMW's Kinetic Sculpture

By DIY Maven

This mechatronic sculpture from ART+COM is exhibited at the BMW Welt in Munich. The 714 metal balls are suspended by strings that raise and lower the balls creating weightless shapes. Those shapes for this particular installation are BMW’s 90 year history of car shapes. Check out the video of this extraordinary creation. (The transitions from one shape to another are particularly amazing.) Via.
