Very cool - but their movement looks like stop-motion.

I think it doesn't really matter if it is stop-motion, or real or not real. It is about the concept, and I think the concept is pretty smart! I heard the designer is trying to develop it further into a 'real' one. I hope he'll succeed, because you can use these seats everywhere: in libraries, archives, museums and so on. Very handy when your hands are full. And very funny to see, too ;-).
