The Museum Tinguely in Basel, Switzerland is an amazing place with endless inspiration for tinkering projects.
Jean Tinguely was a Swiss artist and tinkerer who created many kinetic sculptures that continue to inspire the blending of art, science, and technology.
The collection of work contains elements of scribbling machines, automata, sound contraptions and chain reactions.
In the museum, you can see everything from small rectangular kinetic canvases to giant machines that you can literally walk through.
The largest space in the museum hosted some monumental works that periodically activated for a visual and auditory spectacle.
The giant art pieces make use of lots of humorous elements like garden gnomes, fake ferns and toy bobsleds.
The combination of these everyday materials with more industrial elements relate to a tinkering philosophy of using what you have around for exploration.
