    New Strandbeests are coming. They are called Bruchus. These don't have hinges in their joints. So sand cannot come in there anymore. Classical (leg)beasts always had trouble with that. The new ones are not able to walk on wind yet, but I am working on it.

    Mr Sandman

    Published on Jul 22, 2016

    This wonderful song Mr. Sandman written by Pat Ballard, published in 1954 and first recorded in that same year by The Chordettes, fitted so nicely with the experiments of Theo Jansen. So I edited some movies Theo is struggling with the animals. He often makes his movies on his own, so you see him running from and towards the camera. In my feeling the song really symbolizes Theo's Dream machines.

    Animaris Bruchus is driven by pressed air coming from a compressor.
    Eventually it will be driven by wind. It will have a wing which moves up and down in the wind. Small pumps will press air into pet-bottles. And the animal can walk on this pressed air. .... Probably against the wind.

    Animaris Mulus Strandbeest Theo Jansen

    Published on May 31, 2017

    Animaris Mulus is the new strandbeest. This is the first time a caterpillar walked on the wind. The caterpillar walking system is very simple. Two lines keep a number of segments is together, so the shape of a wave appears. The big advantage of the caterpillar is that it doesn't have any hinging parts. So no lubrication and no sand in the joints. It can also carry a lot of weight. In the coming generation it will carry the wind stomach (PET-bottles for wind storage) and a pumping wing. All my hope is on the MULUS.

His animals get their energy from the wind so they don't have to eat. In the future he wants to put out in herds.
