StrandbeestTruly amazing. Wind powered artificial intelligence. Designed by Dutch artist Theo Jansen, these “beests” live on the beach sand between the surf and the dunes. Once they detect either water or dry sand, they reverse direction. This “flight instinct” prevents them from drowning in the ocean or getting stuck in the sand dunes.

Nothing new, just thought I’d share.
