    Hehe, thats cool! I remember I always used to try to make things like that with marbles and dominos and various other things when I was a kid.... I could only have dreamed of them being that good though!


    I've had a lot of sobering thoughts in my time.... It was them that started me drinking.

    i loved the way the marble will trigger something to then re-use the marbel again in another way on some of them. very very clever

    shame there isn't a haigher quality version you can download

    That's great - I noticed they used a Marmite Jar (9.19 mins) in one of them. Didn't know the Japanese liked Marmite let alone were able ti buy it.

    That is probably the coolest thing I have ever seen on the internet, and I've been here 10 years. There simply isn't a superlative that does that justice.

    EDIT: Even IRL this sort of thing is still cool. When I went to Japan, the hotel I stayed in in Tokyo was near Roppongi (only a 10 minute walk away) but in a relatively sedate area. Walking down towards Roppongi to get the subway one day, I noticed a funny looking object on the opposite pavement and crossed over to have a look. When I got there it turned out to be a kinetic sculpture along the lines of this. Over the course of 10 minutes or so loads of ball bearings would run round an amazing course of runs, chutes, lifts and slides, over and over, 24/7. I stood there utterly transfixed for about half an hour. No other passer by gave it a second glance. The whole thing lived in a perspex box about 2m cubed, and according the the plaque had been there since 1985. My Rough Guide to Japan dedicated at least 40 pages to Tokyo and yet this marvel didn't even get a mention. A quarter of a mile from the most debauched area of Tokyo was this incredible thing of beauty. Japan is a quite incredible country.
