Beautiful Kinetic Sculpture at the BMW Museum in Munich

Here are a couple of videos of the beautiful kinetic sculpture developed by ART+COM which is currently on display at the BMW Museum in Munich.

The mechatronic installation made up of 714 metal balls translates a virtual design process into the space around it. Seemingly weightless and guided solely by the power of the mind, the sculpture moves through a cycle of free abstractions and typical BMW vehicle forms.

Speaking of the BMW Museum, the building is made in the shape of the BMW logo.
