I can only imagine how cool these would be as permanent desk sculptures if you could get a silent motor to drive them with nothing but the quiet steady clicking of some of the mechanisms.

Babe wake up a new BEC video just dropped

It doesn’t matter how old you are, LEGO constructions keep fascinating you again and again.

My grand-uncle was an architect who loved to build mechanical contraptions out of wood as a hobby. He had made many of these same sculptures by hand with hand-cranks over the years and they were some of my favorite toys growing up

That Hoberman linkage with the yellow pieces in the dark looked really striking, very cool!

Tower curves just made me WOW! Thought this was an illusion at first.

The tower curves were really mesmerizing

2:58 *Sailin' the Sea o' Blood*

The wave machine was the coolest, it looked like a fancy wave illustration, but in real life.

This man never fails to impress me

ironically the Zylo, despite being the simplest, entrances me the most, i know it works and if i follow each linkage i can see how it works, but something about stepping back and looking at it makes that understanding go away

The "Tower Curves" and the "Hoberman Linkage" were my favorites. Really nicely done. Can't wait to see more of this!

3:33, the one at the bottom right corner of the screen: why am I here, just to suffer?

It’s amazing how the tower curves can be perceived like the spinning dancer illusion. I was even able to perceive them moving back and forth instead of spinning in a complete circle in either direction!👁️👁️

2:18 "HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON HOLD ON "

The hoberman linkage was really cool. I wonder if it was designed to do something functional originally.

Theres a lot of stuff you can do with those. Honestly using the wave one with marbles on it that fall off the end and get rotated back to the top would be cool

1:06 General Grievous, we meet again.... And you're still shorter than I expected.

3:20 in soviet russia, ground drives you

A moment of silence for the canoe

"This is our little brother, Zylo, he doesn't run on a motor but we love him nonetheless."

I'd like to see you building these machines, like your older videos. All the snapping together and testing and such until the machine worked was very relaxing and fun to watch.

You never grow out of LEGO, it's just that the way you play with it changes.

What a positively extravagant collection of whatchamacallits, gizmos, and doodads!

the Hoberman linkage on the dark background would be a phenomenal loading screen/cursor

So satisfying to look at

Never heard of these things but still fascinated to watch them moving. Great video as always.

3:25 pov: you’re in middle school at the science fair seeing what Brain made

All of these are really cool, but the Tower Curves are by far my favorite.

I LOVE kinetic sculptures. You must be a genius to create those models!

The wave machine actually did a great job at demonstrating why boats need to be at least a couple of meters long

0:28 a very cool set, but some of these pieces cost an arm and a leg.

Me at 0:35... He Supports the R.O.C! 🤣

I am in awe already, and I only just finished watching the first contraption. Thank you. My nerdy engineering mind is loving this...

1:01 One must imagine Sisyphus happy.

Alright so when we finally get the news that an asteroid is coming to earth and will kill us all, i say we just give this guy all the Legos in the world and go on vacation.

no intro no distractions just straight to the point. that’s a w

I could see that last one being a segment in a Great Ball Contraption, it could push through like 10 balls all at once... Very cool stuff as usual.

I've always loved Legos and still buy myself a set for Christmas every year (I'm 51). With some Lego builds I've seen in the last 10 years I'm convinced we should be shipping them to the moon, you can build anything!

I want to see each of these structures built in such a way that everything that could go wrong would go wrong, and then the process of identifying the issues and fixing them. It would be a cool way of showing common mistakes when making mechanical devices such as these and how to troubleshoot when mechanical things don't function properly.

2:04 This is the Spahginus Marcronus, also known as, the Macaroni. They measure from 1 inch to 2 inches. They are well known for their presence in various meals spanning from their discovery from 1872. They are also for their coordinated mating dances where 8 of them, 4 being male and the latter half being female, dance in a specific pattern, very reminiscent of the Hoberman Linkage. As the Macaronis start linking to one another, that is where the mating begins, and they still perform the mating dance with it. As for the Macaronis that were either left out or simply just make an imbalance in the dance’s system, they were destined to find another group of Macaronis to perform the mate dancing with. This specie of Spahginus is rather interesting, and how they mate is simply just magnificent to watch. The Spahginus kingdom of animals aren’t exactly well known for this type of mating, it would only simply be of drenching themselves on a vat of hot water, killing themselves, to mate with one another in what could be assumed, an orgy. But for the Marcronus, each of the Macaroni still live, after mating, which fascinated biologists for years, studying on this wonderful creature. They are truly a sight to see, in the Animal Kingdom.

1:30 I seen this part IRL on personal store

Skills displayed by the driver at 1:06 are absolutely incredible.

2:05 that's trippy as hell @.@

This was perfect in every way no added music showing you different angles how they work I love it

The Hyperboloid Spinner caught my attention because I made something very similar years ago out of a clear tube, fishing line, and seed beads. I had forgotten about it until now, and now I'm trying to remember if adding the beads and rolling it was my idea originally, or if I was trying to copy something I'd seen elsewhere.

A kinetic sculpture is not just a work of art, it's a masterpiece in motion

The engineering that can be made with legos is mind boggling.

Tower Curves really got my head in a spin.

I just want one of those marble slides that toss the ball back up into the top. Those look fun to stare at on a slow work night

The wave invention is 1of the most satisfying machines ever!

These make me feel like I'm at a museum!

The Zylo worked really well: ultra satisfying too!

I like that he turns each sculpture so you can see how it works from different angles.

The hoberman linkage with some annice led setup would look insane

For the wave machine, could you slightly offset the two sides so that the waves also tilt side to side while moving up and down? You’d have to widen the Center channel the waves are riding in but I think it could look pretty cool

thanks for showing no.6 in slow motion. that way i could determine that i still had no idea what was going on. impressive stuff, brickboy👏👏

1:30 wow that one's so trippy o.O 2:05 and that one looks like CGI with that black background :P

I would like to see some of these working with more than one motor, to see just how much of an effect it has on speed

My brain actually moves in my head as the Tower Curves when it sees the Tower Curves... I can't explain it better, I need a neurophysiologist!! Whoa what a freaking strange feeling. All these are awesome, I will pay to see them in action in an art gallery!

I could just watch these over and over!

More, *PLEASE!* - I could watch such stuff four hours… (seriously)

1:51 that tower is sturdy

Someone should make a massive zylo with an absurd amount of really long pieces

Love the Zylo. Simple, yet fun 🙂

That was satisfying to watch

Technical stuff with legos are one of the best things to exist

I used to be obsessed with stuff like this as a kid, when I was 8 I remember making a motorized ferris wheel that was just a bit taller than me. Shortly after that I bought my first PC so all these toys suddenly seemed so limited and I never touched any of it again.

Love these!!!! It took me a good minute to figure out how the contra-rotating beams worked, lol. Fantastic explorations of shape!!!!!

That Hoberman linkage is crazy

DUDE that Tower Curves one is so satisfying!!😃😃

Beautiful explanation of mechanics physics and dynamics

Three curve tower looks really cool from the right angle.

These deserve to be in a museum!

1:13. General Grievous… I thought you would be taller.

This is totally contemporary art. Wow!

This guy can't miss. Love it

Stuff like Tower Curves just seem supernatural to me. I know how they work, it‘s not that complicated, but seeing it in action makes me think it just shouldn’t be possible.

I wonder if the wave machine can have its actuators shafts phased differently, so it also bobs and weaves to the sides. The center link (or the whole way the wave boards are connected to the shafts) would have to be redesigned, but that one is so awesome. Awesome job!

Very much👍🏽and ++ to the "wave machine".

this is wayyy more cooler and fun and better than those expensive boring ones in the market

this lad/lass behind this channel never ceases to amaze me and probably thousands too bravo matey

Once again I find myself watching BEC at midnight when I have school the next day

Reminds me of those orokin sculptures in warframe, really cool.

The tower curves is trippy, its so cool

Lego sculptures. What a great concept

The Hoberman Linkage i found the most interesting. very cool :)

You portioned this JUST enough to keep me watching. well done.

Ok! 5 and 7 have to be my favorite. So trippy lol. Keep up the great work!

Feels like seeing museum exhibits.

It's a bit shame that your latest videos don't include the building part itself. It was really soothing and relaxing to watch, rather than seeing finished structures.

When you put the wheel in the wave machine my brain broke 🧠 Wiiiilllldddd and it just gave me a nostalgia when I would go to the summer camps and build Legos Damn I’m 25 now I should get back on that

Это Шикарно))) всё залипательнО) 1:11 надо такой мотоцикл аля старый сделать) с моноколесом 1:40 просто вау) красиво и чокто) 2:10 магия в темноте) 2:40 Волна топ) Вы огромный молодец)) Вдохновляете)

Some of your shots look unreal! Like it is made in 3D!! But all the sudden we see your hands!!! Looks awesome:)

Very nice. Thanks so much for making these. Very fun to watch. Makes me want to make something like this for my desk.

The Hoberman Linkage looks like a really cool loading animation.

the contra-rotating beams can be modified a bit to be used as really a smooth wave machine

This is like a massage for my brain, thank you

These are mesmerizing. Thanks for sharing!

Hoberman Linkage and the Tower Curves are deffinitly the coolest to look at
