Since 1990 Theo Jansen has been occupied creating new form of life.
Not pollen or seeds but plastic yellow tubes are used as the basic material of this new nature. He makes skeletons that are able to walk on the wind, so they don’t have to heat.
Over time, this skeletons have become increasingly better at surviving the elements such as storm and water and eventually he wants to put these animals out in herbs on the beaches, so they will live their own lives

astounding. left me with mouth agape. Alas, my EFB (Eternal Fountain Block), which is a wind operated piston with water fountain & lights which is of a size 0.5 x o.5 x 1.0m sq doesn’t hold much fascination compared to this.
