DaVinci Decoder Fountain

Cameron Harvey of Harvey Gallery shared his DaVinci Decoder Fountain:



Some have said it is an early device for deciphering the coding in the Last Supper. A few suggested that when played underwater, large whales flock to it and attempt to communicate.

I worry about linking the DaVinci Code with steampunk, but it's a lovely piece. No, the water doesn't turn the gears, but rather runs down the center of it.
