Wood that Works

Artist David C. Roy has always been fascinated by mechanics and motion. He graduated with a degree in physics that led him to the creation of these unique kinetic sculptures. He has handcrafted over 90 limited-edition and one-of-a-kind scupltures that require no battieries or electricity; they just need winding, then the spring-driven mechanism takes over, providing 3 – 20 hours of beautiful and mesmerising movement.
His designs are plotted out with the help of a computer using a number of different applications like Adobe Illustrator and Macromedia's Extreme 3D. Then he spends several days cutting the pieces with a bandsaw and assembling the sculptures. A gallery of his fantastic wood sculptures includes Flash animated examples you really have to see to understand.
This one rocks my socks!
