Yo, I'm sittin' at da' light, when this fish pulls up...
Here's a conversation starter. Seth Weiner cobbled together a fish bowl, some wheels, servos and a camera. Puts water and a fish named "Terranaut" into the bowl. Writes a program that uses the camera to transfer the motion of the fish to the drive wheels. Ends up with a fish that drives.
The ingenious contraption can be seen at Exit Art in NYC until December 23, 2005.
