Dutch artist-engineer Theo Jansen constructs these self-sustaining "creatures" that live and move using only energy from the wind. All of the automation is independent of machinery or computers, it's pure kinetic power which I think is really exciting.
There are several more youtube videos about his work that I think are really fascinating and worth checking out.

that is amazing. I told Brandon he should make something like that in his construction classes.
That is so cool! Kind of reminds me of a giraffe I saw.
Wow that is one of the coolest things I have seen. Ingenious.
I have never seen anything like that before. Wow.
This has nothing to do with your post. I just want to tell you that I dreamed you, me, and cholana were at BYU and you were really really mad that I didn't update my blog every day. Sorry to have a weird dream about you. But I miss you and love you!
I made one of those things once for a science fair project.
