Art Students Cleverly Design Rube Goldberg Machines
Students in Studio Art Major recently created Rube Goldberg machines — contraptions that are intentionally designed to perform simple tasks in indirect and overly complicated ways — out of objects found around their homes.
Students received the project prompt of "make a thing that does a thing!" after watching a video of a Rube Goldberg machine that takes lemons and makes lemonade.
