Is that somehow animatronic? Please, please, please tell me it is! If those gears are meant to be, ugh, allegorical, just lie to me and say they aren't.

Still, well done.

I went and saw these last night and they are really great. They all move when you turn a little handle on the side, and the movement is actually pretty sophisticated and fucked up. Plus they're quite a bit larger than you'd guess from the photo - I'd say the figures are about 14 inches tall. Anyway, check it out if you can.
