The Piano Printer V3 - Marble Machine Physics Simulation (Wintergatan)

I've synchronized Wintergatan's Marble Machine (Piano Version) to about a thousand marbles bouncing on piano keys. The marbles are lifted back up to the top using gears so they can be reused. It was tricky to avoid jams in my dispensers, so I have some rotating parts to keep the marbles from getting stuck. For the finale, all the marbles are collected to form an image.

If you haven't been able to tell from my previous videos, I am a huge fan of Wintergatan. This is not a sponsored video, I just created this as a tribute to show my support to the MMX team. If you have not seen Martin's work, click the link to his channel below. It is amazing!

I made everything from scratch in Blender to make this video. I'm still pretty new to the software, but I'm starting to get the hang of it. Video was up-scaled from HD to 4k so YouTube would grant a higher bitrate.

Special thanks to every one of my supporters on Patreon! If you'd also like to support me so I can make more videos like this: https://www.patreon.com/doodlechaos
