- Take a peek into Blair's bizarre and beautiful world. In a remote corner of New Zealand's South Island, tucked away among the last remaining tracts of native forest, lies a little-known place of wonder. It is the life's work and extraordinary creation of inventor, artist and self-confessed tinkerer, Blair Somerville.
For over ten years Blair has single-handedly owned, operated and ceaselessly expanded the Lost Gypsy Gallery, his wonderland of homegrown wizardry and a playground for kids and adults alike. Using only recycled materials, Blair takes DIY to artistic extremes. His creations are ingenious, interactive, and often hilariously impractical. They take many shapes and forms and share an uncanny ability to amaze, entertain and inspire.
A film experiment by Joey Bania, made with funding from the BBC Worldwide Young Producers' grant. www.joeybania.com/

Touring NZ, I was driving along on my way to Invercargill when I spotted his bus and stuff beside the road. I got out and had a look round. He is very friendly and we talked about his inventions. Amazing man.
if we had more people like this in the world, what a happy place it would be.. xx
A genius, and with the soul of a child.
This was amazing to watch
can you tell me his address or website?

We need more people like this guy
Be a people like this guy. Nothings stopping you.
Fantastic! This man has a lot of talent! In the beginning when he was playing the xylophone I thought he was one of his own automatons! I was thinking, "That one playing the xylophone sure looks and moves realistically!! But he's definitely an automaton.......I think!" Boy was I surprised to see that he was real!
A stop-motion masterpiece! Folks often do not realize that thirty seconds of finished video takes thirty minutes to line up and shoot.
Great collection of stuff and junk too.Automata has always held a fascination for me,I love this film Blair is an interesting man,I'd love to meet him.
Brilliant, & happy!
I'm in love! What a great mind and attitude Blaire Somerville has
I enjoyed your video loved your workshop and it's location, you made the right choices to do what you do.
You could be my inspiration to begin making stuff for fun. I just put up a new garden shed and fitted it out. I'd love to start making some automata, your rustic style is great. Your doing what I always wanted to do.. Oh and great to find a Nutty eccentric Englishman so far from Blighty.
Well said
These automata are incredible! I was honestly laughing at so many of these quirky and exciting contraptions, very inspiring for my university project on automata :)
the world needs more of you
What an excellent film by Joey Bania, and what a fantastic person to interview! Blair is fabulously interesting, and I was sorry to see the film end. I'd love to see Blair's' gallery.
Wolverine’s retirement is both more wholesome and eclectic than I would have expected. :)
this guy is great i have often also referred to myself as an organic mechanic thanks for posting this video
How can anyone give this a thumbs down? Brilliant guy!
great job on filming this...really love the topic and the effects you put into it.....
Very creative documentary and automata artist
You are a resourceful, talented, clever, artist....... also slightly weird ( of spiritual origin ) ...... having certain qualities in common with you, I will allow you to share use of my own motto, if you like......... "There is nothing made, out of which I cannot make something else"
Excellent watch. Thanks.
I have been there and it was amazing! greeting from czech republic, this guy is definition what fraze : crazy kiwi means :)
Nice job by Joey Bania.
WOW...FANTASTIC
So VERY interesting, I love collecting junk and found marvels. You are an inspiration, although I haven't your talent, I do try to make my sketched ideas. Keep on the excellent working ideas. X
That's an artist.
Love it
Hmmm....inventors....what would the world do without them? 🤔🤗
Fascinating chap.....!

Stunning! What an amazing way to take in life. Peace.
Wonderful!
I love men that create, so good to see.

Nice thanks for sharing makes me feel normal or not. Maybe
😂🤣🤗
GREAT AND CREATIVE LIFE YOU ALSO LIVE IN PARADISE, COOL!
This is mockery to what automatons were really about.
Has Tim Burton discovered this fellow yet?!
good
Don't tell me he's not a steampunk guy
That's what happens when you fet an endless supply of mariguana
Joe Guzman what's that? an iguana that you smoke?
Now i know why my soul has been drawing me to NZ...should have listened long ago.
Canada just has nothing for me. ARI on the scale and a wasted life.
🤩
