Theo Jansen Documentary

I first wrote about Theo Jansen in June 2011 and then followed up in 2012 with a post about an animation inspired by Jansen's invented life forms, called "Strandbeests". Since then, a Canadian collective, Salazar, has produced and directed for Red Bull Media House the short documentary that follows. If this is your first introduction to the fascinating Dutch artist and engineer, be prepared to be awed by his kinetic sculptures.
