ART+NATURE+SCIENCE+TECHNOLOGY=Beautiful Gestalt

According to Answers.com, Tropism is the "turning or bending movement of an organism or a part toward or away from an external stimulus such as light, heat, or gravity." With that tidbit of knowledge under your cap, you'll better understand the nature of the aptly-named "Tropism Well". What a wonderful new invention/work of art/blending of technology and nature!

"An elegant sculptural installation piece, The Tropism Well is both beautiful and intriguing. It is also unashamedly functional, existing simply to quench your thirst. When you approach one it will gently bow down and pour water into your glass." Watch the Tropism Well in action here.
