F(lying).I(nfo).C(ollectors) is a proposal for the Piraeus Tower 2010 competition that was asking for the ‘reformation’ of the facades of an existing tower in Piraeus, Greece. Our proposal is a swarm of mechanical 'birds' that covers the facades of the building (when the 'birds' are nesting) while it visually communicates information (when the 'birds' are flying). More information for the project here.
