Went down to Trafalgar Square this morning to watch the Strandbeesten. They're not quite the same as when they're roaming the Dutch beaches, but they were cool all the same. One had been rigged up so kids could push it around instead of being driven by the wind. Another was operated by compressed air rather than the air normally stored by the wind in all those lemonade bottles. Brilliantly sci-fi, hi-tech, low-tech things. They're doing a few appearances in London over the next few days, (via the ICA) - if you're in town I recommend checking them out.
And here's a little minute of video I shot with my DSC-T7: strandbeesten.m4v 11MB
