MIT Scientists to Debut Building Made of Water
While not exactly tech related, the ability to create a structure from computer controlled water is certainly a pretty impressive accomplishment. The building is set to debut in Spain next year.

Let your watery imagination go wild, earlier this week an international team of architects and engineers led by Massachusetts Institute of Technology said they have designed a building made of water.

Zomg, nerd freak out tiem! Its not completely water, but I like the idea that the water is controllable to the extent that patterns can be formed in the scrolling water. It calls for cdc hax!

when the pavilion is closed, the entire roof will collapse to the ground and the whole structure will simply disappear

Yeah Chrysler did something similar, but it wasn't as indepth as MIT has it running. Cool idea what with all the hyper responsive sensors and DLP projection on the "walls". Tho calling it a "building made of water" is a bit of an over endorsement. Something along the lines of really cool/expensive/extravigant/eccentric park shelter would be more descript I think :D
