The stills don’t do it jus­tice, but it comes from the chrono­text site that “is a grow­ing col­lec­tion of soft­ware exper­i­ments explor­ing the rela­tion between text, space and time.”

Essen­tially it runs a selec­tion of text around a spi­ral that’s laid on top of a topo­graph­i­cal map. And it’s awfully pretty. down­load the Java app and see it in action.

Nice.
