Facade or Fad-cade?

Now this is what I call a hi-tech artificial architectural piece of art! On the face, this unique structure looks like a simple black marble rock design. But in reality, this reflective membrane comes to life by using the bright sky or sunlight as its' host. A computer communicates with the FLARE system to create animations on the facade as if the building had live skin!
Here is a video of it in action, check out the endless possibilities of how pieces of black metal can create an eclectic visual! Cool stuff!




I have yet to think of any ideas on how this will become useful, besides attracting attention!
