Just beside my office in London is what is known as a “Liquid Galaxy”, a network of computers running big LCD screens giving you a true panoramic Google Earth experience.
Almost everyone who sees a Liquid Galaxy makes the off hand comment, how do I get one. Until now we have said, “well is a custom version of Google Earth”, “you need loads of space screens”, “sorry it’s not really possible”..
Today however, we can say sure here are the instructions… check out the Quick Start page.
This it must be said is still quite a challenge, but you don’t have to have eight big LCD screens; a liquid galaxy set up scales from just two to dozens of screens.
So if you are looking for a DIY challenge and have the space… get building !
