That’s brillant!
I can tell you there is perpetual energy fact.. In your lifetime it will never run out.. Gravity is perpetual.. It is free energy if you understand how to harness it..
If you look and focus at each component individually, then it’ll start to make sense
I have a pendulum clock, I still admire it, this can be a great wall deco.
I want the Sky Quest one! :’
Fantastic, love it
Perpetual motion is all around you.
It is possible just not legal .
He looks like a serial killer
Where and how to buy these kinectic sculptures in India??
Вот именно такими и должны быть украшения с использованием шестерней, а не неподвижной фигнёй приклеенной на клей, как это часто бывает.
Real life ayatan sculpture
IRL Ayatan sculptures

Incorporate magnets into it and I bet you can get some kind of Perpetual Motion out of it
What a delightful video. Wow
Amazing
BEYOND OUTSTANDING!!!!
Can we buy it?
He ought to get himself a wheel balancer…
I was really amazed by the math and engineering you designed.
It is a beautiful modern novelty. Some of your sculptures can be really technologically advanced buildings.
Grabi its so beautiful
He’s mechanically hypnotising people… this can be made a movie about
You definitely need experience and an excellent brain.
Wow 💚
Awesome…How can we buy these?
Pretty cool 😎 although I can’t imagine he’d be too happy when the grandkids came over and just started messing with his creations lol
Now I am 65 . I know little bit watch machinisam 45 years ago I was thinking why old people ( kings ) made a supper FAN out of kinetic energy or this method
Beautiful Wood !
This, to me, is what a genius is. Absolutely astounding.
A small tip: like this video to keep getting lots of recommendations like this one. My feed is filled with hope, and that’s the fun side of YouTube! 🙏 Blessings 💗
5:35 this one is my favorite, this would trip my friends out so much if i had it at my house, my dream is to have one.
So is not the guy who build it’s actually a couple, so why u only interviewed the man😕
When you go and try to have a cup of coffee with your friend and leave with a f****** headache
These are vertical mobiles.
I’m afraid it just won’t do.. Swing a cat in his living room and you’d end up holding nothing but a severed tail.
Are those…. Ayatan sculptures ?
A great mind and an artist!
Beautiful
If only this video didn’t have miss annoying voice yattering over the interesting stuff
On top of this guy’s massive skill as a maker, he also does cad with a TRACK PAD?
I am completely mesmerised in love with these things good job Rory keep making them I wish I could afford one.
Sure would have been nice to have these around back in the 70s and 80s when ounce of Columbian gold was only 20 tops.
I’m so fascinated with this that this is definetly something i’d have in my house. I’d make my entire house a maze or just some kind of mind bending house puzzle
A Beautiful Couple…..❤
he copied his wife’s idea and turn it into business? That’s so Facebook
There’s no limits to the imagination of the mind. It’s so beautiful when creativity is formed into art.
