a tangible visualization of data and a community blog (2007)

A tangible data visualizer. Users create a database of numbers of things online. How many snow lions are left? How many gallons of paint does it take to paint a destroyer? How many times does a human being blink throughout their lifetimes? These numbers are physicalized automatically by an electromechanical dispenser.
