Fwd: The Antikythera Mechanism | Science | guardian.co.uk

Passed on to me by a friend.  Absolutely amazing Greek Computer!

The first video is quite short, just over 2 minutes and shows how the Lego version works.

The second two videos show the longer historical mystery.  Nifty use of the modern photographic/tomographic techniques used in some of the ambient work at SFComplex. (One imaging orientation with many differing light sources)
