After his engineering career as Vice President of Bell & Howell where he received numerous patents for his designs for the company, as well as some for his personal work, Mr. Bradt devoted himself full-time to the creation of kinetic sculpture. The most famous of these are his kinetic clocks which are included in a number of museum collections worldwide. Monumental public versions of the clock are on view in Toronto's International Airport Terminal and Seattle's Pacific Science Center.
