But instead we’re usually stuck at our dead-end jobs, changing very little in the grand scheme of things. So why not get a desk toy and change at least a small corner of your static world? The Revolution purports to be a “near-perpetual motion device.” What this translates to depends upon how hard of a spin you give it, as well as how often you re-spin. (It’s pretty habit forming.)
The product also claims to demonstrate “many phenomena of physics.” We’re not really sure what those phenomena might be, or even if they’re good demonstrations. We do, however, know that the sound of the needle-like end scraping on that little piece of glass as the Revolution rotates can be so annoying that co-workers tend to keep their distance, and that’s change enough for me.
