Triangle plus light plus nuts plus screws plus shadow plus camera plus string plus straw plus servos plus control board plus computer plus time plus electricity plus bearings equals Triangular Bearings!

We used a laser cutter to create the triangular plate out of acrylic. fastened to three servomotors supported by straw structure and string. The 4mm ball bearings simulate a stream of magnified particles in a wave of wondrous motion in a harmonious union of sines and cosines.
