The "Tower Curves" and the "Hoberman Linkage" were my favorites. Really nicely done. Can't wait to see more of this!

3:33, the one at the bottom right corner of the screen: why am I here, just to suffer?

1:06 General Grievous, we meet again.... And you're still shorter than I expected.

It’s amazing how the tower curves can be perceived like the spinning dancer illusion. I was even able to perceive them moving back and forth instead of spinning in a complete circle in either direction!👁️👁️

The hoberman linkage was really cool. I wonder if it was designed to do something functional originally.

You never grow out of LEGO, it's just that the way you play with it changes.

I'd like to see you building these machines, like your older videos. All the snapping together and testing and such until the machine worked was very relaxing and fun to watch.

the Hoberman linkage on the dark background would be a phenomenal loading screen/cursor

The wave machine actually did a great job at demonstrating why boats need to be at least a couple of meters long

1:01 One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

I want to see each of these structures built in such a way that everything that could go wrong would go wrong, and then the process of identifying the issues and fixing them. It would be a cool way of showing common mistakes when making mechanical devices such as these and how to troubleshoot when mechanical things don't function properly.

The wave invention is 1of the most satisfying machines ever!

Oh i see what you mean

The Zylo worked really well: ultra satisfying too!

I've always loved Legos and still buy myself a set for Christmas every year (I'm 51). With some Lego builds I've seen in the last 10 years I'm convinced we should be shipping them to the moon, you can build anything!

I would like to see some of these working with more than one motor, to see just how much of an effect it has on speed

That was satisfying to watch

A moment of silence for the canoe

What a positively extravagant collection of whatchamacallits, gizmos, and doodads!

A kinetic sculpture is not just a work of art, it's a masterpiece in motion

Tower Curves really got my head in a spin.

I could see that last one being a segment in a Great Ball Contraption, it could push through like 10 balls all at once... Very cool stuff as usual.

The Hyperboloid Spinner caught my attention because I made something very similar years ago out of a clear tube, fishing line, and seed beads. I had forgotten about it until now, and now I'm trying to remember if adding the beads and rolling it was my idea originally, or if I was trying to copy something I'd seen elsewhere.

Love the Zylo. Simple, yet fun 🙂

I just want one of those marble slides that toss the ball back up into the top. Those look fun to stare at on a slow work night

Skills displayed by the driver at 1:06 are absolutely incredible.

Technical stuff with legos are one of the best things to exist

Three curve tower looks really cool from the right angle.

These are mesmerizing. Thanks for sharing!

For the wave machine, could you slightly offset the two sides so that the waves also tilt side to side while moving up and down? You’d have to widen the Center channel the waves are riding in but I think it could look pretty cool

You portioned this JUST enough to keep me watching. well done.

Lego sculptures. What a great concept

More, *PLEASE!* - I could watch such stuff four hours… (seriously)

thanks for showing no.6 in slow motion. that way i could determine that i still had no idea what was going on. impressive stuff, brickboy👏👏

Love these!!!! It took me a good minute to figure out how the contra-rotating beams worked, lol. Fantastic explorations of shape!!!!!

DUDE that Tower Curves one is so satisfying!!😃😃

the contra-rotating beams can be modified a bit to be used as really a smooth wave machine

That is really cool and smart at the same time, bravo.

I like that he turns each sculpture so you can see how it works from different angles.

Really cool ideas and motion. Thanks for building and sharing these!

This guy can't miss. Love it

Ok! 5 and 7 have to be my favorite. So trippy lol. Keep up the great work!

1:30 wow that one's so trippy o.O 2:05 and that one looks like CGI with that black background :P

The engineering that can be made with legos is mind boggling.

this lad/lass behind this channel never ceases to amaze me and probably thousands too bravo matey

ngl the rotating beams look a bit like DNA also the tower curves be lookin hella fine lmao and the wave machine is also able to be made in minecraft

Very much👍🏽and ++ to the "wave machine".

2:04 This is the Spahginus Marcronus, also known as, the Macaroni. They measure from 1 inch to 2 inches. They are well known for their presence in various meals spanning from their discovery from 1872. They are also for their coordinated mating dances where 8 of them, 4 being male and the latter half being female, dance in a specific pattern, very reminiscent of the Hoberman Linkage. As the Macaronis start linking to one another, that is where the mating begins, and they still perform the mating dance with it. As for the Macaronis that were either left out or simply just make an imbalance in the dance’s system, they were destined to find another group of Macaronis to perform the mate dancing with. This specie of Spahginus is rather interesting, and how they mate is simply just magnificent to watch. The Spahginus kingdom of animals aren’t exactly well known for this type of mating, it would only simply be of drenching themselves on a vat of hot water, killing themselves, to mate with one another in what could be assumed, an orgy. But for the Marcronus, each of the Macaroni still live, after mating, which fascinated biologists for years, studying on this wonderful creature. They are truly a sight to see, in the Animal Kingdom.

That Hoberman linkage is crazy

I wonder if the wave machine can have its actuators shafts phased differently, so it also bobs and weaves to the sides. The center link (or the whole way the wave boards are connected to the shafts) would have to be redesigned, but that one is so awesome. Awesome job!

This is totally contemporary art. Wow!

Amazing

Reminds me of those orokin sculptures in warframe, really cool.

"This is our little brother, Zylo, he doesn't run on a motor but we love him nonetheless."

I used to be obsessed with stuff like this as a kid, when I was 8 I remember making a motorized ferris wheel that was just a bit taller than me. Shortly after that I bought my first PC so all these toys suddenly seemed so limited and I never touched any of it again.
