 * favorite kinetic sculpture video:**

Reuben Margolin's kinetic wave sculptures were absolutely fascinating. While watching the video I was constantly intrigued to figure out how they worked. Their rigid square structure would not usually be seen having the ability to create such fluid movement. The extremely advanced system of simple machines, mechanisms, and thousands of connecting strings was brilliant. I especially enjoyed how the piece appeared to be floating in mid air. The materials used ranged from recycled cardboard to salvaged items. The concept of recycling and reusing found objects is fresh and appreciated.
