a dynamic ecological sculpture designed as an "artistic barometer for resource efficiency". the concept proposes to place data-driven dynamic artifacts in public & private space that continuously represent the consumption of water, electricity & organic fuels. according to the designers, by representing such normally invisible processes, an emotional connection is made that leads to a higher awareness of the energy issue in society.

this project was selected as 1 of the very few finalists at the prestigious 2007 BrainPrize competition.
