Melvin the Rube Goldberg Machine
|Rube Goldberg Machines are perhaps the ultimate display of OCD Art, and this design, Melvin the Machine, by HEYHEYHEY is pure triumph. Like all good Rube Goldberg Machines, Melvin performs a basic task in a most elaborate fashion. But there’s more to Melvin. The machine tweets, takes pictures and video and even prints its own posters and T-shirts.
All of this action occurs over the course of just 4 minutes. (Resetting Melvin takes the HEYHEYHEY team of five people about 1.5 hours.) Watch feats of engineering in the video below, and then visit http://www.melvinthemachine.com for answers.
