The Carousel of Progress—English-style
September 6, 2007From BBC News
Anyone with memories of Florida’s Disneyworld may recall the ‘Carousel of Progress’ feature, in which technical innovations going back 100 years are presented in a whimsical, animatronic, musical style. And anyone with memories of Britain may not automatically link the country with copious amounts of sunshine. But as this BBC report shows, an Englishman is spending the next two years building what might also be described as a Carousel of Progress; it’s a solar-powered house, which rotates to make the most of the available sunshine.
