It's actually really simple how it works because of the different string length, but it's practically hypnotizing to watch.

Enjoy

Kinda cool.. Like watching a fan blade speed up and slow down even though the speed never really changes significantly.

People who have cool pendulums hanging around and who have a lot of free time.  That's my guess.
