Me too. That's awesome. Can you imagine it at night with colored lights shining to brigthen up the water?

Here's something I don't quite get. I understand the principle of this thing. it's basically like a HUGE plotting printer that's using water instead of ink. But why it stretches out doesn't make sense to me. As the water goes lower it elongates the graphic. I would have guessed it'd retain the shape all the way to the bottom.

That was absolutely fascinating. I could sit and watch that for hours.

My guess is the water isn't being emitted at terminal velocity, so the water is accelerating downward. Once all the droplets reached terminal the image would be the same in its longer form.
