Tomorrow, Brits will vote on a new prime minister, with the results being projected on the landmark tower known as Big Ben, in real time. It’s not the first time projections have been beamed, but it’ll be interactive at least.
It’s the first time the election results will be beamed on St Stephen’s Tower (to give it its full name, as Big Ben is actually the bell inside the tower), with the picture included here a mock-up of what the last general election‘s results would’ve looked like splashed on the front of the building. The BBC is behind the scheme, but before you ask—I doubt there’ll be daleks patrolling the base. [BBC via O’Reilly Radar via Boing Boing]
