Theo Jansen still at it with full force... (life goals!)
Strandbeest evolution 2025
https://youtube.com/watch?v=ANhA94ZqnEQ...and obligatory re-sharing of some pics of our joint generative design workshop in 2013, incl. Theo's graveyard of older Strandbeests and mechanisms:

Also remembering that already back then he was very worried about the manufacturer discontinuing the specific pipes used as raw materials for these creatures and therefore bought several kilometers of piping as reserve in advance, to future proof his project and not having to potentially recalculate/recalibrate all the designs...

Caterpillar pulled by strandbeest
Theo Jansen https://strandbeest.com/
Jansen is engaged in creating new forms of life: strandbeests. Skeletons made from yellow plastic tube are able to walk & are wind powered. They've evolved since their inception in 1990 & are divided into 12 evolutionary periods. By developing this evolution, I hope to become wiser in the understanding of existing nature by encountering myself the problems of the real Creator.
