an ambient information display that uses air bubbles rising up tubes of water to represent data (e.g. video images, events, user interaction, & even text). by properly controlling the release of air, a set of pixels which scroll up the display is created. this allows a rendition of any (small, black & white) image to be displayed in a physical setting.
