Robotical Genius- #TheoJansen

One part Sculptor, one part engineer---1000% artist.  Theo Jansen's work is the kind of art that get's little kids to imagine they could do anything.  This is some Bionicle's on steroids.  Really inspiring stuff.

“Since 1990 I have been occupied creating new forms of life.  Not pollen or seeds but plastic yellow tubes are used as the basic material of this new nature. I make skeletons that are able to walk on the wind, so they don’t have to eat. Over time, these skeletons have become increasingly better at surviving the elements such as storms and water and eventually I want to put these animals out in herds on the beaches, so they will live their own lives.” --Theo Jansen.

I was inspired by his creation. He really went into details. I love that!
