be the
most complex BEAM Symet to date.
Getting video of this beast was not easy, it moves fast enough that most
digital cameras
low frame rate makes its complex movements hard to follow. Even using 8 mm VHS
(NTSC) video it appears to move a bit differently than when seen with the naked
eye!
I'll post an update once the videos are available, but I warn you they are not
going to be small.
There are over a dozen JPG's up now, and a fairly detailed description of the
beastie.
Enjoy.
