For those of you who didn't know, Wikipedia's 10th anniversary occurred last month. Artists Dean McNamee and Tim Burrell-Saward commemorated the event with an art installation that was put up at the official party held at the Louise T Blouin Foundation in West London.
The installation memorializes Wikipedia's 10th anniversary by representing the continuous volume of activity that takes place on the site. With 18 printers suspended over the entrance, individual contributions rained down on attendees.
