Johan Scherft: Monkey-kaleidoscope

Das neueste kurbelgetriebene Automaton des vielseitigen holländischen Künstlers Johan Scherft aus Leiden (20 km nördlich von Den Haag). Er schreibt dazu u.a. im YT-Text: „This automaton is based on the principle of a kaleidoscope which uses a mirror to obtain the illusion of symmetry in the image. Although based on a simple idea, it was not easy to get it right, especially the movement of the eyebrows and the up- and down movement of the monkey was difficult. “
