I thought about doing a variety of things but wasn't feeling very excited about any, until something with magnets crossed my mind. After some toying with the old classic space magnets I came up with this very simple kinetic sculpture with a magnetic pendulum 'reacting' to a rotating magnet controlled via gear.
I would be curious to see what else could be done with magnets and some more time and elements : /
Demo video on Flickr or Youtube.
Parts count is 95 this week, if you consider each magnet to be two elements (holder and magnet itself).
