Wind Wall at Northshire Museum of Science

I visited the Northshire Museum of Science a few months ago for the first time, and quite liked it. I didn't get to explore fully as I was helping to ride herd on a two year old, but a few things stood out. The first of them was this installation, which showed how wind currents can move. It was simple, ingeniously made, and visually engaging.
