The Source information sculpture
Since three dimensions are always better than two, a design collective by the name of Greyworld has just installed a little project called The Source at the London Stock Exchange that consists of a grid of 162 cables arranged in a square with nine little spheres mounted on each cable. The whole thing is eight floors high and relays info about how the Exchange is doing by moving the spheres around to arrange themselves in three-dimensional shapes, such as forming an up or down arrow to mark the movement of the market or spell out the names and prices of stocks. To prove they're not all business, The Source can also create more whimsical objects such as the DNA double helix or a sunrise.
