One of the coolest things I have seen in awhile
 
Theo Jansen's Strandbeests - Wallace & Gromit's World of Invention Episode 1 Preview - BBC One - YouTube

I posted about that last year, I believe. VERY cool! I enjoyed watching it again.

Wonderful, creative stuff. Saw the four original episodes years ago and was as captivated as a child.

Wallace & Gromit - The Official Site

Edit: Whoa! Just watched the video, which I had not seen before. Amazing! I thought it'd be about the claymation figures.

That is great. I wonder if I could find a way to make a small version. May make a great school project for my son and I to work on when he starts physics.

Very cool Jeremy - we could use him in our country to manage our DOT!

Here's the video itself:
