YouTube Description:

World's largest kinetic art sculpture unveiled at Changi Airport by TokoZoso

SINGAPORE, 4 July 2012 -- Passengers and airport visitors entering the Departure Check-in Hall at Singapore Changi Airport's Terminal 1 (T1) can expect to stop in their tracks and be captivated by a new art installation. Kinetic Rain, as it is titled, takes pride of place at the terminal, enthralling visitors with its fluidity, distinctive shapes, elegant and refined movements and precision-perfect technology.

Kinetic Rain is made up of 1,216 bronze droplets that transform elegantly into multiple shapes, akin to poetry in motion. Carrying an aviation theme, the key element in every shape shows the movement of flight through slow, fluid movements. Some of the more recognisable shapes include an aeroplane, hot air balloon and a kite. One can also make out a dragon and a flock of birds amongst the 16 different programmed segments.

This is ghastly for so many reasons...

- English subtitles for people speaking English with an accent.
- 3/4 of the video is about how much work went into something that they spend only a minute showing you at the the end.
- And finally the shaky home video of the thing working...
VVS - Vertical Video Syndrome
