Nature is in some aspect geometric, and so is Reuben's sculptures. Bringing nature with geometric art is such a beautiful combination.
Reuben Margolin you are a certified genius, to be sure. Thank you for the treat of Pure Joy.
I am an art teacher and we are studying kinetic sculpture in our unit. I showed this video to my fifth graders and they were mesmerized and inspired! Several of them plan to watch the video again at home. Thank you for posting!
Outstanding!! Truly a master,the time,patience,the vision,I'm really taken by what I've seen.Thank-you for allowing me to see such tallent.
Beauty, sculpture, math, and recycling, all wrapped together by genius.
People like this make the world a better place.
Mesmerisingly beautiful and inspiring.. Thank you Ruben and makemagazine for sharing this with the world!!
I love this so much! When art and science collide, the results can be wondrous, and in this case, many wonders. I hope to meet Reuben some day, and discuss his art and process!
The creativity of looking at the world with an artisic eye.......enchanting!
This is some of the most clever kinetic sculpture I've ever seen, as in some of these linkages look like they could have real uses outside of art. This guy's a mechanical genius.
oh my goodness this man needs to have his own museum. i was seriously amazed by his work.
Imaginative use of mechanics in creating aesthetic shapes, solids and their smooth movements.
Wow! wow! wow! Beautiful. What a mind he has. Gives me chills just enjoying the elegant movement and that this world has people that can create such things for others.
This is the coolest Art I have seen in a long time.
Nice vid Reuben, your the only artists that shows some of the behind the scenes stuff and you talk about your intrest in making stuff since you were little. This vid is a real pic me up and will help me to keep going on my art prodjects. About the part when you speak of subing out, don't let that get to you because no one knows it all and if you get help then everything stops. Thanks.
You've taking this to another level!
Just showed this to my physics classes during a discussion of energy and simple machines. This is an excellent demonstration of a beautiful marriage of science and art.
That was fantastic, I need more documentary interviews like this!
I cant believe these materials can do the things you have made them do...incredible
This dude is an ARTIST. The way he looks at the world is not usual. He just stops, and sees every little detail, every wave on the water. Now think about how many of you people stop and think about how beautiful the world is nowadays, chasing your careers and living in constant stress.
Giant respect.
Amazing & coolest work. Cannot believe one man can do so many creations.
If I wanted to get kids interested in math, i'd definitely show this video before a class or something. Math is all around us, it's quite literally how everything in the universe works. Visualizing it in such conceptual pieces is astonishing and can really open one's eyes to the beauty of mathematics.
this man is a genius!!!!!!!!!!!!!
absolutely amazing astonishing genuine mechanics!!!!!!!!!
Those sculptures are just so surreal.
How could anybody dislike this, the guy's a freaking genius. All of that time and effort with no tests to see if it works... He's up there with Da Vinci and Theo Jansen.
Reuben, I'm envious of your imagination & workshop. Your work is, Very groovy Cool!
I'm gratefully impressed - Cheers! :-)
All beautiful pieces, especially the linear wave.
This is the very thing that mkes things happen in this world,, keep the good work going!
All I can say is WOW!
This guy is a mad genius. Awesome work.
You Sir are a genius! its so hard to emitate the movements of nature ,and to capture it in an artificial ,& scientific way is amazing ...thanks for sharing and more power to you!
I love his work. He's brilliant.
First time in my entire life i loooove math...Marvelous creation!
DaVincian - very well put, and I agree. I am truly amazed - not just in the concept, execution, methods involved - but he also just seems to be such a cool, level guy.
I am a fourth grade teachers and my students will love Reuben's work!
these are absolutely beautiful
Really a treat for the eyes.
This kind of stuff reminds me of Davinci and how he combined art and mathematics as well as engineering to create masterpieces. I could watch his stuff all day long and just marvel at it. Not many artists are on this level-very, very, very cool.
Respect! I love the relaxed attritude this artist has and the things he is making ofcause :-)
definitely one of the coolest things ive ever seen
Now this is what I should have done for a career! Amazing work and very inspiring!
amaizing skills and great video after so many years :)
I love all of your impressive work. Saludos Paty
great work Margolin, hope you have a lot of great stuff in future
It would be easy for some programmer to make a computer model of something like these, but there is something magical and awe-inspiring about the sculptures. They are familiar, but in a much more tangible form than is expected.
THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL I ALMOST CRIED!!!
I've always love things like that.......
I love watching your work
I'm in awe. Now, that's an artist.
Great Creation of Kinetic Art Ruben!!
I like the movement and elegance of all the parts flowing like waves of water.
AMAZING! Keep creating Brother.
Regards, Nico Diemel
What a groovy dude! Man I love your work. Best wishes.
OH MY GOSH, this makes me squeal like a small child and brought tears of happiness to my eyes! XD
Pure and underrated genius.
Thanks for going kinetic, Reuben, and counting.
I can't imagine being as lucky as he is in life: having a passion for expression, getting to do what I love, and being good at it.
Speaking as a bronze sculptor.. I must say.. his work is genious..
Beautiful stuff. Nice work
STUNNING !
Make wood flow like water, how awesome is this guy!
This guy is on another level. To simply see an eddy in the water and turn it into that, makes me wonder if we are recreating our own existence.
fantastic!!! Love the work, love the guy.
Man(humans) is capable of creating anything! This guy reminds me a lot of myself the way I see colors separately and every shapes broken up, not all together. This guy finds motion. I liked the whirlpool he made! =D
I was just about to say excactly the same! This is so... beautiful!
my mind was blown...that was really amazing
Wow. BEAUTIFUL. Really, this is just amazing. :) I'd love to see it in person.

This video deserves more views
This guy is an artist of life.
Amazing! The number of views-- considering it's a 10-minute video-- is a testament to how remarkable it is. -- Lori Kagan-Moore, Director, The Great American Dollhouse Museum
This guy is a genius of many trades...
Expert in math, woodworking, engineering...at least. Impressive.
So cool! Love this artist.
Awesome, this reminds me of that other artist who makes kinetic art e.g. walking tubes on a beach using the wind. Great stuff!
Very clever he's so tallented! Well done.

This is so awesome.
I love your ideas, Sheer creativity.
Way to go Reuben, you're great!!
I appreciated your response to the jerk that wrote an insulting comment about the sculpture video - I am often really irked at people's comments and I wonder if it's worth further effort to respond to them... I think that people feel comfortable posting such hateful things because they know they wont be held accountable for the ugly things that they say. As we say in the south, "their mamas didn't raise them right". Anyway - thanks for speaking up! You are our country's future!
talented, eclectic, artistic!
holy shit this is awesome!
cheers me up to know such kind of people still exist :)
Awesome video...awesome thing. Subbed you for sure. Stoked to see more.
WOW!!! this is AMAZING!! I love the idea. I love the concept! I love kinetic sculptures!! this is so exciting. I can't wait to try something like this at uni =D
I was thinking the same thing!
Amazing art. Amazing mind!
dude this stuff is awesome.
Simply beautiful : )
Great example of how beautiful mathematics can be.
