Windcent Van Gogh

live wind map

Fernanda B. Viégas and Martin Wattenberg, founders of Many Eyes, have created one of the coolest maps I’ve ever seen — it looks like a living Vincent van Gogh masterpiece.

You can see a still of the map above, but you have to check out the (nearly) live wind map to get the full effect.

  1. MESMERIZING. And very cool. Makes me wonder about the Wind Farms near us. Looks kind of quiet here.

  5. This was rad! It reminds me of how many cartoonist and animators show Poseidon or Neptune forming when he is angry!!
