Believe it or not, someone probably got paid for doing that. The Lego factory is pretty close to here, every so often they will advertise in the paper looking for artists to work on Lego sculptures. Some of the stuff they build is amazing, for example, they have a full scale replica of a Formula 1 racer completely made out of Legos.

That.  Is.  So.  Cool.

Two things I really liked as a kid: MC Escher & Legos.

It's like peas & carrots, chocolate & peanut butter, ....

COOL!!! 

Now if I could only find and learn modding/mapping tools for the Lego Star Wars video game.  That would be a blast to have light saber duels in.

Really interesting.

I wish I could see the structure in person.
