Rollin’ down to the bay

My workmate alerted me to this article about an incredible piece of kinetic sculpture, a model of San Francisco constructed entirely of tooth picks. The artist’s name is Scott Weaver. The piece is entitled Rolling through the Bay. Weaver playfully narrates this short video which illustrates the sculpture in action.

It’s things like these that give me hope and fill me with optimism and wonder about humanity.

Blast off! Came across this crazy and provocative piece of art in Huffington Post of all places. Had to share it.
