Theo Jansen creates multi-legged mechanisms that
capture wind energy and convert it into motion:
walking motion

Jansen is an engineer by training who describes
himself as a kinetic sculptor -

he can be thought of as a scientist/artist and his art,
scientific art

and why not?

Jansen says, "the walls between art and engineering
exist only in our minds"

"part of me is an engineer who wants to map the
progress of mobility, another part is an artist who
wants to sculpt the earth that surrounds us and
give it shape"
