Economic Spiral by Zydac

The Downward Spiral!

Here’s another cool thing: a 3d visualization of the great depression.  No, not this one, silly!  The one your grandparents lived through, with the black and white movies of people sneaking onto trains!  And the snappy dialog.

While the dialog might not fly as fast these days, we do have very clever data visualizations, thanks to people like Zydac.  I’d love to see a similar version of the recession we’ve just been through — as bad as it has been, I suspect it wouldn’t be as deep or dark as what we see here.

Enough gloomy talk about the economy already! Why don't you make something! What should you make? How about this conversation piece? What's the conversation? The Economy of course! Aaargh!

    Haha, this is clever. Does the height follow the GDP or the Dow?
