Conductor: www.mta.me from Alexander Chen on Vimeo.
"Conductor turns the New York subway system into an interactive string instrument. Using the MTA's actual subway schedule, the piece begins in realtime by spawning trains which departed in the last minute, then continues accelerating through a 24 hour loop. The visuals are based on Massimo Vignelli's 1972 diagram."
Awesome idea, also incredibly important to use Vignelli's version to ensure direct contact. There's also a live feed at the MTA.me website.
