In Episode 18 of Tales From The Brick, Jon (8 Bit Bricks) is joined by Jeff Sanders aka Brick Bending, the mastermind behind some of the most mind-bending LEGO geometry on the internet.

Jeff shares how a simple moment building with his kids led to a lifelong obsession with pushing LEGO beyond its intended limits, discovering that even basic bricks can curve, flex, and create stunning geometric art when approached with a mathematician’s mindset.

The conversation dives deep into Jeff’s creative process, from early experiments with circles and intersecting shapes to massive installations made from tens of thousands of bricks. He also talks about exhibiting his work, from local museums to large-scale international showcases, and the surprising connection between his designs and traditional geometric art.

Jeff also breaks down his journey into content creation - how years of trial and error across YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok led to viral success, and why storytelling, presentation, and even a bit of controversy play a role in getting people to see LEGO in a completely new way.
