Third Hand
In this piece or should I say scientific work the artist builds a three arm one made to the exact dimensions of his right and made to fit as an extension. It was able to pinch, grasp, and turn the wrist like a hand can. It was used throughout most of his performances but due to the weight and gel used to handle the arm it made his real arm irritated and to heavy for everyday use. so now its only used as a performance piece.
I think this piece is crazy and very good. To build that and see something like that. Its like looking into the future especially since this was done in the 1980's. unfortunately it was heavy and couldnt be used everyday but it sure was a giant stepping stone.
