Photography: Rube Goldberg Machine

Until today I didn’t know what a Rube Goldberg Machine was.

No, that’s not true. I knew what it was, just that I had no idea what it’s called. In fact, I am not even sure what I would have called it, had I have to describe it to you. I would have mentioned the domino-effect a lot, but of course that is just part of the whole set up.

Basically it is an “over-engineered machine that performs a very simple task in a very complex fashion” and it never fails to impress me.

Canadian photostudio 2D Photography has spent eight months setting this thing up:
