December 22, 2006 The Stock Market in 3D

From Information Aesthetics:

an artistic 3D visualization of New York stock exchange data. "I Deal Solution" uses the spiral metaphor for its ability to translate 1-dimensional data into 3-dimensional space. in practice, the sphere size corresponds to the stock price, color to change, vibration to relative change, sphere position on spiral to volume, & sound to total percentual change. "the point is not to transmit a particular meaning but rather to express the power of energy concentrated in space information".

Plus, it weirdly aligns with the Wizard of Oz.
