Dancing buildings generate their own power
Everyone wants to get "off the grid" these days, and power their home, office, or wherever with power they generate themselves. Until recently, these planet loving do-gooders were forced to choose between solar panels, or a big 'ol wind turbine in the back yard. But now architects are generating energy in the coolest way ever: by making their buildings dance.
Seriously. The structures boogie, using wind power to generate the energy to constantly re-shape themselves. The movement, in turn, generates enough power to run the tower (and nine other nearby buildings).
Dubai is set to host the first building created under this "Dynamic Architecture" philosophy. No word on when they'll officially break ground, or when the project will be completed, but by the sounds of it, you may be able to visit the world's first moving skyscraper in the very near future.
Check out a video of the building in action after the jump.
