A Pedal Powered Walking ‘Pedaalbeest’ Inspired by Theo Jansen’s Strandbeest
by Lori Dorn from Laughing Squid on (#6N18M)
Inspired by the prolific work of Theo Jansen and his renowned Strandbeest, Dutch artists Aat Dirks and Ad Lakerveld created the Pedaalbeest, a pedal-powered walking vehicle that is propelled forward by pedaling backwards.
An evolutionary branch of Theo Jansen's Strandbeesten. Strandbeest becomes Streetbeest. Pedaling backhands is necessary for stability and saves a reverse mechanism
