Money Translated into Water

Name Koert van Mensvoort
Website Datafountain

The Datafountain is connected to money currency rates on the internet. It is refreshed every five seconds. This mobile fountain measures 5x4x3 meters. The relation between money and water is evident. On our datafountain we display the Yen, Euro and Dollar (¥€$). Currency rates are closely interconnected; their interdependence is visible in water. The design of the casing was kept as minimal as possible. The water is the thing to look at and listen to.
