Seed Cathedral
On a 6,000 square meter UK Pavilion site sits the Seed Cathedral carefully centered. The Seed Cathedral is 20 meters tall and is formed from 60,000 slender transparent fiber optic rods. Each fiber optic rod is 7.5 meters long and encloses one or more seeds at its tip. During the day, they draw daylight inwards to illuminate the interior. At night, light sources inside each rod allowing the entire structure to glow. When the wind blows the optic “hairs” gently move as they create a dynamic effect for the viewers. Inside the darkened inner chamber of the Seed Cathedral” the tips of the fiber optic filaments form an apparently hovering galaxy of slim vitrines containing a vast array of embedded seeds.” (via Yatzer)

Howdy! I understand this is kind of off-topic but I needed to ask. Does running a well-established website like yours require a large amount of work? I am completely new to blogging but I do write in my journal daily. I’d like to start a blog so I can share my own experience and feelings online. Please let me know if you have any recommendations or tips for brand new aspiring bloggers. Appreciate it!
