My creations, a new form of life | Theo Jansen

Prevodilac: Miljana Stojanovic Lektor: Ivana Korom

I would like to tell you about a project which I started about 16 years ago.

Voleo bih da vam opišem projekat

koji sam počeo pre nekih 16 godina,

It's about making new forms of life.

a radi se o stvaranju novih formi života.

And these are made of this kind of tube --

Napravljeni su od ovakvih cevi -

electricity tube, we call it in Holland.

električnih cevi, kako ih zovemo u Holandiji.

And we can start a film about that,

Možemo da pustimo film o tome

and we can see a little bit backwards in time.

i tako pogledamo malo u prošlost.

(Video) Narrator: Eventually, these beasts are going to live in herds on the beaches.

(Video) Narator: Jednog dana, ove zveri će živeti u krdima na plažama.

Theo Jansen is working hard on this evolution.

Teo Jansen vredno radi na ovoj evoluciji.

Teo Jansen: Hoću da stavim ove oblike života na plaže.

Theo Jansen: I want to put these forms of life on the beaches.

And they should survive over there,

I trebalo bi da oni tamo prežive,

on their own, in the future.

potpuno samostalno, u budućnosti.

Learning to live on their own --

Naučiće da žive samostalno -

and it'll take couple of more years

a trebaće mi još par godina da ih pustim da sami hodaju.

to let them walk on their own.

Narrator: The mechanical beasts will not get their energy from food,

Narator: Mehaničke zveri neće dobijati energiju iz hrane, nego iz vetra.

but from the wind.

The wind will move feathers on their back, which will drive their feet.

Vetar će pomerati perje na njihovim leđima, što će im pokretati noge.

The beast walks sideways on the wet sand of the beach,

Zveri hodaju bočno po mokrom pesku plaže,

with its nose pointed into the wind.

sa nosem uperenim u vetar.

As soon as it walks into either the rolling surf or the dry sand,

Kada nađe na more ili suvi pesak, zaustavlja se,

it stops, and walks in the opposite direction.

i odlazi u suprotnom smeru.

Evolution has generated many species.

Evolucija je stvorila mnoge vrste.

(Music)

This is the Animaris Currens Ventosa.

Ovo je Animaris Currens Ventosa.

(Music)

(Laughter)

(Applause)

(Aplauz)

TJ: This is a herd, and it is built according to genetic codes.

TJ: Ovo je krdo, napravljeno po genetskom kodu.

And it is a sort of race, and each and every animal is different,

Ove je kao jedna rasa, svaka životinja je drugačija,

and the winning codes will multiply.

a pobednički kod će se umnožavati.

This is the wave, going from left to right.

Ovo je talas, ide sa leva na desno. Pogledajte ovaj.

You can see this one.

Yes, and now it goes from left to right.

A sada ide sa -- da, sada ide sa leva na desno.

This is a new generation, a new family,

Ovo je nova generacija, nova familija,

which is able to store the wind.

koja može da skladišti vetar.

So, the wings pump up air in lemonade bottles,

Dakle, vetar pumpa vazduh u boce limunade,

which are on top of that.

koje su ovde na vrhu.

And they can use that energy in case the wind falls away,

I mogu da koriste ovu energiju u slučaju da ponestane vetra,

and the tide is coming up,

nailazi plima, ali imaju još malo energije

and there is still a little bit of energy to reach the dunes and save their lives,

da se dokopaju dina i spasu se, jer se veoma lako dave.

because they are drowned very easily.

(Laughter)

(Smeh)

I could show you this animal.

Mogu da vam pokažem ovu životinju.

(Applause)

(Aplauz) Hvala.

Thank you.

(Applause)

So, the proportion of the tubes in this animal is very important for the walking.

Dakle, odnos cevi u ovoj životinji je veoma važan za hodanje.

There are 11 numbers, which I call The 11 Holy Numbers.

Ima 11 brojeva, koje ja zovem 11 svetih brojeva.

These are the distances of the tubes which make it walk that way.

To su razdaljine među cevima pomoću kojih oni ovako hodaju.

In fact, it's a new invention of the wheel.

Zapravo, ovo je ponovno otkriće točka.

It works the same as a wheel.

Radi isto kao točak.

The axis of a wheel stays on the same level,

Osa točka ostaje na istom nivou

and this hip is staying on the same level as well.

i ovaj kuk takođe ostaje na istom nivou.

In fact, this is better than a wheel,

Zapravo, ovo je još i bolje od točka, jer

because when you try to drive your bicycle on the beach,

kada pokušate da vozite bicikl po plaži

you will notice it's very hard to do.

primetićete da je to veoma teško.

And the feet just step over the sand,

Noge prave korake po pesku,

and the wheel has to touch every piece of the ground in-between.

dok točak mora da dodirne svaki komad zemlje između koraka.

So 5,000 years after the invention of the wheel,

I tako, 5 000 godina posle otkrića točka,

we have a new wheel.

imamo novi točak. A pokazaću vam na sledećem snimku

I will show you, in the next video --

can you start it, please? --

- možete li da pustite, molim Vas? -

that very heavy loads can be moved.

da mogu pokrenuti veoma teški tovar.

Pozadi je jedan momak koji gura,

There's a guy pushing there, behind,

but it can also walk on the wind very well.

ali može hodati sasvim dobro i uz pomoć vetra.

It's 3.2 tons.

Ovo je teško 3,2 tone.

A ovde radi na vetru sačuvanom u flašama.

This is working on the stored wind in the bottles.

It has a feeler, where it can feel obstacles and turn around.

Ima pipak, preko kog može da oseti prepreke i okrene se.

You see, it's going the other way.

A ovo, vidite, ide u suprotnom smeru.

Can I have the feeler here?

Možete li doneti pipak ovde?

OK. Good.

Ok. Dobro.

So, they have to survive all the dangers of the beach,

Dakle, moraju da prežive sve opasnosti plaže,

and one of the big dangers is the sea.

a jedna od velikih opasnosti je more. Ovo je more.

This is the sea.

Mora da oseti vodu iz mora.

And it must feel the water of the sea.

And this is the water feeler,

Ovo je pipak za vodu.

and what's very important is this tube.

A ono što je veoma važno je ova cev. Ona inače usisava vazduh,

It sucks in air normally,

but when it swallows water, it feels the resistance of it.

ali kada proguta vodu, oseća njen otpor.

So, imagine that the animal is walking towards the sea.

Zamislite da životinja hoda prema moru.

As soon as it touches the water --

Čim dodirne vodu, trebalo bi da čujete zvuk izpuštenog vazduha.

you should hear a sound of running air.

(Sound of running air)

Yes!

Da! Ako ne oseća, utopiće se, znate?

So if it doesn't feel, it will be drowned, OK?

Here we have the brain of the animal.

Ovde vidimo mozak životinje.

In fact, it is a step counter, and it counts the steps.

Zapravo, to je brojač koraka, on broji korake.

It's a binary step counter.

Ovo je binaran brojač koraka.

So as soon it has been to the sea,

Dakle, čim dođe do mora,

it changes the pattern of zeroes and ones here.

menja kombinaciju nula i jedinica ovde,

i uvek zna gde se nalazi na plaži. To je vrlo jednostavan mozak.

And it always knows where it is on the beach.

So it's very simple brain.

It says, well, there's the sea, there are dunes, and I'm here.

On kaže, pa, tamo je more, tamo su dine, a ja sam ovde.

So it's a sort of imagination of the simple world of the beach animal.

To je jedna slika jednostavnog sveta životinje sa plaže.

Thank you.

Hvala.

One of the biggest enemies are the storms.

Jedan od najvećih neprijatelja su oluje.

This is a part of the nose of the Animaris Percipiere.

Ovo je deo nosa životinje Animaris Percipiere,

kada je nos životinje fiksiran - fiksirana je cela životinja.

When the nose of the animal is fixed, the whole animal is fixed.

Tako kada nailazi oluja,

So when the storm is coming up,

it drives a pin into the ground.

on zabije kolac u zemlju. (Smeh)

(Laughter)

Audience member: Wow!

The nose is fixed, the whole animal is fixed.

I nos je fiksiran, cela životinja je fiksirana.

The wind may turn, but the animal will always turn its nose into the wind.

Vetar se može menjati, ali životinja će uvek nos okretati prema vetru.

Now, another couple of years, and these animals will survive on their own.

Još par godina i ove će životinje preživljavati same.

I still have to help them a lot.

Sada još uvek moram puno da im pomažem.

Thank you very much, ladies and gentlemen.

Hvala Vam puno, dame i gospodo.

(Applause)
