New Zealand-born Joseph Herscher has created an absurdly complex machine for the simple purpose of serving a piece of cake. The device, which is known as a Rube Goldberg machine after the man who first came up with the concept, includes a hammer, melting butter, a falling laptop and a baby. The project took Herscher three months to complete with 90% of the time spent on trial and error
