Deep Sea Tango is an automaton depicting the dance between an angler fish and a butterfly fish. The angler fish has a "lure" that lights up, a jaw that opens and closes, eyes that roll and its pectoral and tail fins move. The butterfly fish reverses direction and swims out of harms way. An innocent bystander, an oyster, closes up shop whenever the angler fish approaches. A little sea turtle swims serenely in circles through a swirling sea.
