Miniature Sculptures and Musical Ergonomics

5 stars

Fascinating story of the incredibly small sculptural work created by Sandaldijan. Touches on his theories of ergonomics and mastery of stringed musical instruments as well. Sandaldijan sounds like he would have been a delight to have known -- full of energy and enthusiasm, but able to focus intensely on his very peculiar, playful, tiny artwork.

I followed this with the Museum of Jurassic Technology's corresponding Viewmaster reel, which is a tiny work of art in itself.
