That is

BEAUTIFUL.

I'm a bit miffed as I was planning something slightly similar for a project I'm doing... but Jeebers that guy is good.

Very clever but...

(and it's been a long time since I did any German) shouldn't there be an adjectival ending on mensch? I'd guess something like "die menschliche Machine".

Very long time too..

I think 'die menschliche Maschine' would translate as something like 'the masculine/manly machine' (but it's years since my school German classes -Fraulein Greene would be so disappointed)

I notice in the comments on the flickr page that a German speaker already hauled the artist over the coals a few times before this version was settled on.
