Wouldn't you love to have one of these in your house? http://www.smoothware.com/danny/woodenmirrormov.html

It is a confirmation of the imagination of some people that this works the way it does. Apparently, it was made in 1999, too. Here's the specs:

830 square pieces of wood, 830 servo motors, control electronics, video camera, computer, wood frame.
Size - W 67” x H 80” x D 10” (170cm , 203cm, 25cm)

Here's a question for you. Is this art, or is it science (technology)?

Both!

Nifty

i would get annoyed by the noise it makes very quickly.

Ah, didn't notice that the first time I watched that. Yeah, that would get a little annoying, but then you could always keep it off, and only turn it on when you had company.

Some people have way too much time on their hands. :p

At least they're weird though. I'd hate to see people wasting that much time on normal things. That's usually how golf courses get built. :p

I kinda like the clacking, and it would only do it when you walked by-just put it in a low traffic area.

Well, look on the bright side: it discourages vanity...

I wonder what it would look like mounted to the ceiling above my bed. That might be an interesting enough place to make me forget about the whirring.
