Abstrakt: This research explored the crossroads between art and science. Those involved on the project included individuals in the engineering and art fields. Powered by the micro charge-pumped actuation of electrons in a scanning electron microscope these artistic pieces use a phenomenon once considered an irritation as a power source. The pioneering application of artistic technique to micro-technology has inspired this "kinetic micro sculpture". This new usage of microtechnology has led to mechanical invention, such as a 180 degree vertically rotating hinge and spontaneous out of plane motion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
