Homemade Bubble Machine

Just look what you can do with an oscillating fan and some household junk! Well, maybe not you, exactly, but someone did, and we are trying to figure out why. This might be an art installation of some kind, or it might be someone's lockdown project. While the idea of automating the fun of blowing bubbles seems a bit sad, this weird machine is mesmerizing to watch. The YouTube page has no information and no comments, but they titled this video "Delicate balance." Yet nothing is really balanced, it's all held together by clothespins and clamps and weighted to the ground by a cinder block. Nothing about it makes any sense at all. This is what the internet was made for. (via reddit)
