Buenos Aires design boutique molistudio bring all their 3D (and sound design) talents to bear on this mesmerizing in-house art film full of intricate and whimsical sculptures they call “Useful Machines.”

I have no proof but I’m fairly certain the intrigue with CG pieces like this (hyper-real yet physically impossible) results from our cerebral cortex scrambling to make sense of what our eyes tell us is true but we know can’t be of this world.
