description:
The modern world bombards us with information that speeds by at an overwhelming and impractical pace. This device comments on information overload with seven split-flap displays modified to shuffle rapidly, creating a continuously moving image of numbers. The blur of information calls for intense focus as the data flashes by at a nearly incomprehensible rate.
