September 11th Memorial

 

I’ve just finished the first phase of an interactive memorial to the victims of 911. Each person is displayed as a “pillar” with the height of the pillar relative to their age when they died. The pillars combined create a virtual tower of strength. I’m planning on developing the idea to enable visitors to leave messages for any of the victims as well as have it searchable. It’s an emotive subject and one that I have run past some New York friends of mine before I made the decision to post it. I’d welcome any comments you have about the project

Wow. That’s one helluva concept. Best of luck.

What is your reasoning behind making the heights relative to age?

I wanted to show the wide cross section of ages that died in the attack. I’m definately not saying that one person is greater than the other.
