Kinetic sculpture from 1,200 toy cars

Thanks to Boing Boing and  Mark Frauenfelder. A “terrific short documentary about Metropolis II, Chris Burden‘s incredible kinetic sculpture, a 20′ x 30′ model city with 1,200 Matchbox-type cars running at 200 scale mph. It took four years to make and will open at the Los Angeles Country Museum of Art (LACMA) in Fall 2011.”
