Wave Machine


WAVE MACHINE rolls atop Aqua Circus, a mechanical aquarium installed in the main lobby of Schneider Children's Hospital. Above the waves flies a seagull. A push button starts a motor which turns a series of cams which, in turn, sequentially raise and lower two dozen blue plexi strips. The result is an undulating wave surface.
This just made me wonder what else we could do with aquariums to make them fun. I love the idea of a seagull flying overhead, though not sure what the fish would think!

I'm very tempted by one of these.
