This is really neat. A new take on representing artifacts from the past in a smart interactive way. David Small created the 'Nobel Field' in Norway. It's a museum for all Nobel Prize laureates, (winners).
I am guessing that motion sensors act as the user input. LCD screens then begin to present facts about a specific Nobel Prize laureate. This is a great way to present information to a person. I feel that sometimes a typical 'museum' might feel a bit stale. Rather than having a static, one dimensional form of representing history, David Small has turned a topic into something else. What a great way to capture attention of a passer-by, let them know that their presence matters.
