That's a great sculpture! I like the idea of generating a seemingly complicated motion (the sine wave) with a simple rotational motion which drives the cams offseted at different angles.
I have been designing and building kinetic sculptures since 1975. Each is a wooden machine powered by a constant force spring which must be wound. While visually interesting sculptures when still, they become truly fascinating when in motion. After a simple winding they entertain with motion and soft sounds for varying lengths of time.
