    Machine with Roller Chain kinetic sculpture - GIF and video

    Machine with Roller Chain kinetic sculpture by Arthur Ganson.

    A simple exploration of the organic nature and complexity of roller chain. The shapes and patterns will never repeat. Often, heavy industrial materials have a 'softer side' that is not revealed if they are used only as directed!

    wonder how many times he tested the number of links to perfect it. If it were 41 he could have named it RC41 but I suspect it was more.
