"The walls between art and engineering exist only in our mind"


-Theo Jansen




Theo Jansen is a dutch artist with a background in science.  For the last 15 years, he has been evolving a series of wind-powered animals, made of plastic tubes.  When these constructions are fed by wind, they set into motion and transmute into organic-looking creatures; or beach-animals as Jansen calls them.  Theo Jansen received the Jury's Special Prize in the Interactive Art category Ars Electronica Festival in 2005.
