Data as Art

There is something both arresting and appealing about this visualisation

Calming, and slow enough to understand the information

With thanks to Jeff Cambron who writes:

A new project with GE, the science of dynamic breaking (a key to GE's in-development hybrid diesel-electric trains) gets broken down via super slow motion video capture

Basically it is a simple illustration of the physics behind braking. The General Electric Company, have discovered that we can capture and store energy from a braking locomotive = dynamic braking

I don't know much about the product, nor the science, but the video is jolly impressive

Interesting
