The sculpture is named after Karlu Karlu (Devils Marbles is an English name). This Conservation Reserve and one of the oldest religious sites in the world is located in the Northern Territory of Australia in the locality of Warumungu about 105 km (65 mi) south of Tennant Creek, and 393 km (244 mi) north of Alice Springs.

I'm fascinated by the kind of complex creative brain that can visualise and create such a marvellous thing! Very well done!
Think of drawing a line all around going wherever you want the marble to go, then put another line right next to it making a track. There's a start anyways. Work from there. Draw that line a wild as you desire. Life is all about honest experimentation. Dishonest experimentation mostly gets people either addicted or in deep trouble.
@@BeeFunKnee Quite a way from drawing on a page, to 3D and kinetic motion - that's some levels above! It even has implicit humour, as well as excellent craftsmanship.
this is the kind of thing that i'm so glad youtube exists to see more of, but truly nothing beats being able to witness a kinetic sculpture in person. i've loved these kinds of sculptures for as long as i can remember and have been fortunate to have seen many in person. i sincerely wish these kinds of sculptures would be publicly and proudly displayed again.
The skill and talent that has gone into such a stunning creation is mindblowing!
If this had been built in the 1780s, I can assure you that the Town Marble Fascination Machine would pull better crowds than the local dead guy on a stick and people 200-odd years later would still go to see it...thank you for showing us this wonderful and elegant automaton.
Ooo this wonderful contraption does put joy and whimsy into mine heart and soul
I couldn’t take my eyes off it! What a wonderful “thing”!!!! I’m fascinated with the who, what, where, when and how of it! Love it, love it, love it!!!!!
Marbles are happiest by far, when they are rolling around in contraptions. It's what they were born for, so it's little wonder they thrive on a wireframe stage.
Marbles little glass hearts were meant for a child's thumbs and a happy flicking away in order to capture other marbles held in a circle that also wanted to play. All else is adult marbles icing on life's sweet cake we all get to eat. Age can never hope to win while the heart is young anyways!
i love this comment, there's a quality of whimsy i adore. not to sound cheesy, but thanks for posting it.
Marvelous ! And if this isn't available as a kit, it should be !!
We are all glad that you had the free time to build such a contraption. It’s quite amazing. We can’t wait for your next one.
This dude could design the craziest pinball machine, and I'd love to see that.
So many wonderful elements the wiggling part looks like a happy snake, the speed of the loops, the gentle lowering, the jump.
Wonderful creation 😃
Energy equals Marbles Times the Velocity of Light. Fabulous.
Mesmerizing 😯
Never seen one of these set to music - so cute! Music, art, and basic visual coding make a lovely combination. An art gallery should do a show in this medium - kids, computer programmers, and sculptors would all appreciate this! 👍
Thank you for your persistence, precision, design, and variety in your sculptures. Most appreciated.
I decided this was far more important than going to work this morning . . . Now I cannot afford one - (still smiling though)
Any excuse will do, when one wants to procrastinate 😉
@ As ELLEN says, "Don't delay . . . Procrastinate NOW!"
That looks so amazing! It looks like the marbles are just gliding.
I've never seen marbles so happy.
The photography of it is also amazing 😮
Beautiful work WeR1sculptures! I made a wooden marble sculpture during my carpentry apprenticeship and after a 40yr career it is still my favourite project. Cheers.
Great music, compliments the movement of the marbles so well
This reminds me of those pool ball sculptures that our local malls had that would go crazy every hour and let a dozen pool balls go down the track at the same time. I can remember that cow bell so well! It was mezmerizing!
The shot at 1:17 is just unreal. So much artistry at once, i can feel how cool it is to the creators.
Beautiful design and build. Wow. Mesmerizing.
Perpetual motion machine!
Not quite
Well, technically it's not perpetual motion machine. Electric motor turns the helical lift, so it needs electricity to work.
@WeR1sculptures I wasn't serious
It's mesmerizing. Love it!
Amazing. Poetry in motion
Fantastic kinetic sculpture! I'd love to see a video on the construction process. I love the way it's nickle plated. All the welds and bends are perfect. True craftsmen did this one. Well done!Edit, I see that it's electo polished stainless, even better!
I’m absorbed by the design & construction as well. Each movement section had to go from idea of movement wanted to testing how to do that, then perfecting the repeatability. Then putting sections together in the lattices with the inevitable no: wait, THIS has to come before that or you can’t fit the other thing….
I suspect this took many, many hours.
Beauty.
What a marvelous and beautiful work of art! Mesmerizing.
The fist thing that I would buy if I had money. Truly amazing
This totally fucking rocks! I want one; I could watch this for hours!
Awesome 👏🏼👏🏼 Absolutely mesmerizing work!
Physics!! Very satisfying. Must have taken a while to design.
Best Anime opening I’ve ever seen
Magical, brilliant and WOW!
a great work of art!
What a wonderfull track! Very satisfying to watch.
Why is it so smooooth?
That was so cool to watch thank you for sharing.
So fascinating and you filmed it perfectly!
i feel like i genuinely NEED a 6 hour loop of this with the asmr of the balls rolling
I felt it was too short as well, just mesmermized
@ exactly 😔
Very cool!
Intriguing design and flawless finishing. Can you imagine if one could manage to pass an electrical current into the two tracks and each marble contained an LED with exterior contacts that would pick up the charge and cause the LEDs to flash as the marbles rolled along? It would be truly random in nature, and figuring out the logistics of insulating the separate tracks from one another would be a nightmare but still... Very nice work. Thanks for sharing it with us!
As you already stated it would be difficult to insulate the tracks, but even more difficult it would be to make the connectors on the ball as the ball is round and doesn't stay in the same vertical position as the train does. Thankfuly there are clear balls with battery and flashing LEDs inside them already available, so we can still have flashing balls rolling down the track :) Thank you.
!!!!! Que chulada 😮😮😮😮
This is crazy good!!!
Very cool.
😮. Gah! Humans, particularly this one, are Amazing!
pretty damn good
That's a cool thing.
Just… WOW!!
I’m impressed!
I want one.
Thanks 😮
Marble mass maleable motion minutely mastered mesh........
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
good god what a contraption!
That's super cool!😎
This a living sculptur art machin ! ! !😊😊😊
Cooool! At first I wanted to hear the actual marbles on the tracks, but the music is so beautiful and matches the flow really nicely! Also, I see there's another video where I can hear the sounds...yay! I wonder why it's called Devils marbles...guess just a name. :)
They were quite religious back then. When english explorers first came to Karlu Karlu they saw it as devils work...and the rest is history.
Amazing , i want one
Right out of the animated movie (2005) Robots. Love the marble action. Music not so much. The sculpture should stand alone on its own merit. Sheer genius.
Mute works
But then where is the click, clack, and slithering of marbles on the wire cups and rails as they travel? They make their own music from the interaction of glass and metal. Why hide what is natural to the magical machine? 😊
Amazing !! Scale it up to run zorbs ... I'd jump in for the ride.
That's amazing!!💖💖
Great human ingenuity and skillful construction, using God-given physics and abilities.😊
Nothing to do with a devil, I'd say! 😅
spacewarp ftw
Full frontal stainless sculpture is perpetual satisfaction...Oo...
Is it possible to purchase one of these? And if so, what would the cost be? Thanks.
I want a roller-coaster built like that
Great 😊
I'd like to see a single camera shot of this thing in motion. The edits are very nice but i just wanna watch it go.
At the end of this video a link to the video with real sound and in one shot appears. Same link is also in the video description. Enjoy.
B-E-A UTIFUL 💓💗👏🏻👏🏻🥰💕💞💛❤️😍💖
Well this is rather brilliant.
As far as I can tell it seems to be Turing complete.
Очень круто, спасибо! Инсталлируйте в шарик видеокамеру - это будет отвал башки! 😁
Very cool, thank you! Install a video camera in the ball - it will blow my mind! 😁
God's view of the universe.
Rube Goldberg would be proud
Whoopie Goldberg wouldn't
AI has some stiff competition
WOW Nothing like it
What did it take to make this? It's amazing!!!
30 years of internet fingers and couldn't find this song in 30 minutes. Help!

@WeR1sculptures 🙏🏽❤️❤️❤️
Whoa!
The Filming, needs a Wider-View to capture all-that-happens, as it Happens! There's a 'wall mount' version of this at The Montshire Museum, in Norwich, Vt (across the River from Hanover, NH), and that captivated my twins from age 3 thru 16, as-in, it never got Old! I like this, and it's a Nifty Build!🦄
There is another video filmed in total, with real sound. Link is in this videos description and also at the end of this video.
How? Just how!?
It took me a while to realise that the central shaft is an elevator.
Is the song artist and title correct? I tried to look them up, but only come up with videos of a politician from Brazil?
Also, this is absolutely incredible! I was mesmerized through the entirety of this video. And jamming to the music as well!
Thank you! soundcloud.com/viniciuslummertz/sonhonatural?
Saw something like this in an airport
I don't know, it looked more like glass marble angels in motion to me. I'm not the handmade inventor though... so what do I know.
How mach time it take for the ball to go from the top to the bottom ?
It will be nice if one ball was in a different color to show end of a cycle
Other than that very nice, thanks
Check the link at the end of this video or in the video description and you will get the answer to your question. Thank you :)
This is brilliant but better without music , just the sound of the balls rolling would be better
Video with many shots would be difficult to watch with real sound because it's not a continuous sound. That's why I made another video (in one shot) with real sound. Link can be found in the video desctiption and at the end of this video.
L accompagnement musical pas mal
Is this beautiful masterpiece for sale?
Unfortunately not. It's in Australia.
Where can I buy one? 😅😅😅
What exactly does that have to do with the devil?! 🤔
Exactly! They see scatered rounded boulders around the teritory and come to the conclusion it had to be devils work. 😆"Karlu karlu" as "round boulders", fits the description much better.
I know I can't afford it if you do but do you sell these???
I mostly do commissions.
@WeR1sculptures fantastic work my man, some of the most creative I've ever seen in my life
They Named this apparatus the Wrong Name.. !!
(ꈍᴗꈍ)♡ 갖고 싶네요, I Want it
Life feels like this no?
Sure does. With the lift representing a reincarnation.
Boris Atanasovski needs to take Trump's place as President. Anyone who can figure this out is who we need running the country.
🤣Now that's funny 🤣
Go play with your toys. The adults are back in the room.
What a stupid, irrelevant comment.
A turnip could do a better job than Trump.
Thanks for the fascinating video.
@ coming from a Vegetable, that’s a big accusation.
It would be better if all of the shots were not such close ups.
You are welcome to check the other video filmed in total and with real sound. Link is in the video description and at the end of this video.
how about a no music version.
There is a link to the video with real sound in the video description - for true rolling ball sculpture fans 😉 Actually, the same link appears also at the end of this video. Enjoy
I turned it off.
This amazing new invention-
Volume button.
@@zyxw2000 I think what @7null meant was, they wanted to hear the real sounds of the sculpture in motion.
How about you just turn sound off on your device...
I shouldn't have smoked that weed.
Meh. Boring after about a minute and a half.
