UFO Of Octahedrons | 2400 Neodymium Magnetic Balls @ledwatchman

Uploaded February 2012 | Updated September 2026, 10 minutes ago

Magnet ball creation of small octahedron units formed into tetrahedrons, and then into a pentagonal UFO type of shape.
The completed UFO uses 48 x 10 x 5 = 2400 ball magnets.

Music is from Oxygene 5 by Jean-Michel Jarre.

$Fractal Cluster Complex | 8700 Neodymium Magnetic Balls Inspired by the work of HYPRKLSTRKMPLX, in particular his Quasicrystal Cluster Complex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDXs6u8kl6E ...and Hyper Cluster Matrix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vciCInYfrm0 My structure uses a lot less magnets but creates a fractal pattern of quasi self-similarity: that is, not exactly identical at the smaller scale, but with an analogous structure. 12 icosahedral clusters are surrounding a golden 13th core cluster, with each of these 13 clusters made from 12 smaller outer pieces with a 13th golden mini core inside them. Total exact magnet count: 12 × 12 × 46 (nickel coloured outer pieces) + 12 × 122 (2 layer golden mini cores inside the outer nickel clusters) + 12 × 46 (central golden core cluster outer pieces) + 60 (mini golden core inside the central golden core) = a grand total of 8700 5mm diameter neodymium magnetic balls.
