Water and electricity can cooperate safely!!! Don’t think so? Then how about this fantastic Crown fountain in Chicago? Crown Fountain is an interactive fountain that is located in Millennium Park. It was designed by Spanish artist Jaume Plensa. The artist took inspiration from ordinary citizens.

Actually, the fountain is not a fountain at all. It is a kind of two 50-foot glass block towers which are capable of projecting video images. At each end of a tower there is shallow reflecting pool. On the screens you are welcome to enjoy images from a broad social spectrum of Chicago citizens.

The fountain is a common gathering place and most people can’t take their eyes off it, since the water flows out of open mouths of people on images. The idea is fresh and very unusual.

awesome collection! I´ve never seen so many black markers... My own "collection" are remains from tagging and writing in the 90´s. But I got some markers from the 70´s I´m proud of.
