User-generated skyscraper in Brussels




Visitors to the Dexia Tower in Brussels can use a touch screen at the building's base to control RGB LED bars attached to its 4,200 windows. The result is a dazzling interactive light and color display.

From the Web site: "Once a composition is created, it can be sent as an electronic postcard with a snapshot from the tower, taken from a distant location. It is also uploaded on the specific project website ( www.dexia-tower.com ) where people can retrieve their postcard, as electronic and printable format, with Christmas and New Year’s wishes from Brussels."

Here's a live video feed of the building. Pretty neat!
