I was recently lucky enough to have had the pleasure of a wonderful conversation with a like-minded creative soul. Over a couple of hours, we covered a vast amount of ground, exchanging artistic inspirations and stories. It made me aware of how much one can gain from sharing those things that inspire us as practicing creatives. Thus, with this in mind, please find some links to some very inspiring things...

...the genius (and perhaps madness) that is Theo Jansen...

...and the equally incredible Arthur Ganson...

This talk by Ganson is fantastic – he discusses his work with sincerity and eloquence. Well worth a watch.

The Long Now Foundation, which commissioned the above Ganson talk, has an incredible, and extremely far-sighted, project underway.

Back on Australian soil, I have recently rediscovered Richard Goodwin. His explorations of ideas of the prosthetic in relation to the body, and exoskeletons, are particularly interesting.
