[@mattdorfman7518]

quite possibly my favorite piece

[@smbdyelse]

Your creations are awesome, they impress and inspire. It's a great visual pleasure, I enjoy just watching and relaxing.

[@islenyovillas]

This is insanely beautiful

[@saeidmomtahan]

I saw sculpture similar to this in Dubai. Is that your work?

[@markpettigrew3482]

Nice. A lot better than the simple kinetic sculpture found at Bellingham Station on Railroad Avenue, where I live. But Anthony Howe lives quite close to this town, on Orcas Island.

[@erinamos7498]

Like a jellyfish moving in slow-motion. So mesmerizing to watch

[@fredericsidler]

Beautiful. I can't wait to see one of your artwork live.

[@swapnildadamode662]

I wonder one day some big company buys this creation and this guy becomes a popular ,🍎👀

[@Loyannelima]

I could watch it for 1 hour. It's so relaxing

[@zdrastvutye]

like a jellyfish that puts its inside out and its outside in

[@tabithacarlson5587]

So beautiful. While I still feel anxiety just under my breastbone while watching this particular sculpture, it becomes bearable...somehow smooth and manageable just for the length of the video. It is but a dream to have such a sculpture, I could never afford one, but it is none-the-less a touch of peace for just a little bit and for that I thank you.

[@timd8912]

Bananas and lime water crush my anxiety.........

[@foxccc7517]

I need a large 1. Where do i get one over 5 foot?

[@eunochos]

You could probably integrate some sort of turbine-style wiring into the joints, which would allow for the sculpture to generate electricity as it spins, making for an enlightening AND environmentally satisfying sculpture. Where there is motion, there is recoverable energy, and I'd vastly prefer to have stuff like this dotting the landscape instead of huge industrial-looking turbines.

[@AustinGarrett777]

+Johann Kulsic Unfortunately this type of sculpture is probably not as efficient at capturing energy from the wind as turbines.

[@Luckingsworth]

Just because something spins does not mean it can be utilized to create electricity. Which is to say, creating electricity takes power and the effort to spin the alternator used to make electricity would too great for this to overcome and it would never move. These sculptures rely on smooth bearing to operate, so that even slight winds are enough to turn their massive and heavy structures. They are not designed to produce torque like a wind turbine is. For reference, modern wind turbines use the same design for their blades that airplane wings do in order to not only utilize the downward force of gravity, but also the upward force of differing air pressures to create power both on the downward as well as the upward stroke. If you put a little tiny motor on one of these you might be able to get enough energy to power a small led.

Us this ptopeled by air only?

[@desertstar7664]

Out of this world

[@zdrastvutye]

if the center point is an intersection, the branches must be shorter than the radius, or each have a different start angle, which can be taken from the subscript, or just count the number of times the for next loops are worked through

[@twistwashereagain]

just saw one on Olympic Rio Opening Ceremony

[@fredericsidler]

Do you teach it?

[@mariluquiroz7943]

¡Es un poema para la vista! Me fascina.

[@LilianAndLilian]

This is how the flower open in our nature

[@clevanheerden]

Ik vind het erg mooi

[@magiciansway]

Amazing Mesmerising Beautiful

[@Phat_Albert]

Amazing.

[@АлексейКозубов-в6у]

Прекрасная работа

[@armandoberardo8306]

What's the math behind it?

[@HOWEARTDOTNET]

One plus one equals two. Two plus two equals ____. And so on and so forth. Thanks.

[@diegogoodman3671]

Toroidal, Cóncava, Vortice

[@ibimon]

What powers the device?

[@HOWEARTDOTNET]

Psychic energy generated by hundreds of surrounding insects that have focused on the shininess of the stainless steel. Ants, beetles, but mostly bees are responsible. In 1843 Hubert Carmichael demonstrated this phenomenon when he balanced a spoon on a fork in the middle of a hay field on a hot August day in the English countryside. Not really, just kidding you after a long day in the shop welding and grinding. The wind powers the device.

[@ibimon]

I thought it was wind, but then I deviated towards electronics due to the misconception that for wind to work it will have to be perfect flow of wind and always in the same direction. I guess there are levers and cogs that are inside we can't see whose work is to make the structures spin simultaneously without breaking the flow. My cluttered mind always deviates from simplicity. Nice work Anthony. Very mesmerizing.

[@Kirmm]

Unbelievable. Weren't you got inspired by psychedelic experience?

[@RomanicHopeless]

he said jelly fish

[@CraftyShawn]

Cool

[@SteveNielsenArt]

I just saw one similar posted by someone in another country. showing them making the peaces and after it was installed. I've been following you for years and just thought you should know. if anything it's a compliment and yet a cheap knock off. no were near as intricate as yours.

[@HOWEARTDOTNET]

Could you please show me the link?

[@picklesnoutpenobscott3165]

I saw the janky nasty knock off. Shameful. This, is beauty.

[@kevinboyer3501]

magnifique !!

[@jonathanmellqvist2]

Jellyfish :D
