Shop Test Video for The Alchemysts Clocktower.
In this "lights on" demonstration this we see the Alchemyst in his lab .This piece was designed for low lighting in a parlour setting ,this footage was taken for insurance purposes before it left for its new home in Oregon .
This particular show is called "Pillars" It took many years to realize this automaton and care was used to make the advanced technology below stage adaptable in the future while keeping the figure itself purely mechanical.The Alchemyst is only 12" tall and consists of hundreds of hand machined brass and steel spieces.The tower itself consists of thousands of pieces was built from scratch out of wood, steel brass and fabric and just about any other high quality material where needed.The industrial machinery includes pneumatic valve's ,servos,clockwork,and lighting and fountain (water) systems

what incredible engineering

@yippedoodah 9 лет назад

I like the story he tells. Sounds like a grim fairy tale or some sort of parable in a drama like how Hamlet had "The Mousetrap"

@PaulPistore 14 лет назад

An astonishing piece of work! I have worked in animatronics and puppetry for nearly 20 years and haven't seen more beautiful piece. I have a headache just imagining the construction and design that went into this. Truly exceptional.

I marvel at these incredible creations. Very inspiring. The hours it must take. Being an artist as well I imagine for you time fades as you enter that realm of the now where all external thought evaporates, an island free from the modern world. That place of complete internal silence, when you become the art.

@videochemist You need to print something at 30 fps with a shut the hell up lens, maybe to be projected onto a i'd-like-to-see-you-upload-something-valuable screen?

It's like having Disney's Haunted Mansion in your own home! You should be an Imagineer.

@volafox 13 лет назад

Such workmanship, it is a delight to see such a high art still active in this day and age!!

@rEsonansDx 12 лет назад

"...It took many years to realize this automaton...." How many were they who studied this automaton?

@GinaToySculptor 15 лет назад

Simply Brilliant. I love the artistry of the Story-teller, the magic of the Marionette Theatre, the superb renderings of character in sculpture, and of course - the historical-based technology of the true Automaton. A wonderkind, indeed, is our Thomas! ;) Smashing !
