Final: The Analytics Engine.



I wanted to use 2 different data from the start. one Fixed data and one live data from Pachube.
The analytics engine that read past and live.
The global financial data was used as a fixed data, and light sensor data from pachube as a live data.
However, the live data wasnt longer live. i had to edit the values which were quite disappointing.



Global Financial Data

I learnt from vinh's temperature tutorial, to make own xml file and make the objects scales up from the value.
All values were used from the global financial data in my xml file.
It makes a basic look of a graph. As the scale(graph) goes up, it changes the levels(heights) of the Buildings.
Basically global financial data shows the suitable size of building.
Also the xml file changes numbers of windmills.

Pachube Live data
(since its not live anymore, ive made my own values from the data)


the live pachube data was used in glowing balls which represents electricity(energy).
if the live data value is more than 20, the three glowing balls around buildings, goes up and the glow ball around windmill moves towards to the city in order to supply energy to the buildings.
if the live data value is less than 20, the glowing balls around buildings goes down and the glow ball around the windmill moves backwards from the city in order to recharge(gain) the energy.

(Value 20 is an example value of maximum electricity to the building in order to run)

the three glowing balls around buildings are used as parameter glow to windows and walls in the buildings.
Therefore as the glowing balls gets closer, the windows and walls in the buildings glow.
the glowing ball around windmill is used as parameter rotate to windmill fans.
Therefore As the glowing ball gets closer, the fans rotate faster.
When both data are played, it shows suitable size of the buildings and the suitable amount of energy needed for the size of building. and it shows the suitable numbers of windmills in order to supply the energy.

This installation is to show how important the links amongst money, electricity and buildings are.
