‘Broadcasting the climate of humanity’
Visit the site for the Cloud that claims to share the ‘digital sublime’ with the people of London and the 2012 Olympic Games. The high-in-the-sky lookout tower is powered by the foot and bicycle traffic.

I’d say, watch the video and keep an ear out for mention of ‘grassroots’ and some Google advertising and formal techniques too. This project seems to have worthy backers.
Anyway, it’s neat looking and definitely a point goes to form over function.

Sky Totem
Soo-in Yang and David Benjamin of New York’s The Living have completed an interesting—and extremely beautiful—public project in Seoul, Korea. Called Living Light, it’s a permanent pavilion and glass canopy that registers and communicates air quality in the city.
“Our project aims to combine real-time data about the environment with dynamic lighting to create an interactive facade of the future,” the architects write.
