Or really dedicated. I’d like to interview the guy and ask him what message he was trying to convey, what emotion he was trying to illicit, what inspired him to make it, how long it took, and where he got the materials.
I interviewed this guy when I was a news anchor for a TV station in Santa Rosa!! HE’S NOT A METH HEAD! He’s a VERY nice guy who works at a grocery store. He lives in Rohnert Park, CA. This sculpture is a representation of San Francisco and has minature a Golden Gate Bridge, China Town, and other landmarks. He drops ping pong balls in it and they make parts of the sculpture move. He’s contracted with Ripley’s to either give it to them or loan it to them. That’s one of his GIANT harlequin great danes in the pic with him, he has like 5 of them.
The funniest part is I wasn’t even at his house to talk to him about this sculpture, he was just so stoked on in he took me inside to show it to me. I was actually there to shoot his epic Xmas display: http://www.lightsofthevalley.com/Properties/Detail.asp?i=466 (That website doesn’t do his Xmas light display justice).
I think I saw this thing…. It took a long time to make, but I don’t remember how long. It might have been 3,000 hours or something along the lines of that. When you put a ping pong ball in the top, it rolls by all the historic sites depicted there.
dude musta been really bored…

That’s some seriously impressive sculpture.

probably took months or years to make, but i could destroy it within seconds.
My thoughts exactly. I kinda wish someone would ring the doorbell and Fido would jump up wagging his tail. Bye bye. I’m a bit cynical though.
That is AWESOME! I wish I was that talented.
This is freaking epic man. It’s awesome!
the ninjas did it….
Thanks for the info.
ACHOO!! Oops….
Omit the peace sign, dude.
Hippies do smell.
Also implying that any amount of meth is appropriate.
What was it a 80% addiction chance?
I forget, but either way…
2 srs; dr
toothpicks=You’re doing it right
I’ve definitely seen this thing in person, and the guy who made it is pretty cool.
It’s a truly impressive work of art, especially so in person.
i saw that s**t! it was f***ing awesome!
Meth my ass, the creator of the poster is just jealous of this old guy’s mad skillz.
FALCON KICK: needs to be done.
Seriously, can you really ever take TOOOOO much meth?
