 What does it feel like to be stalked by a giant red flower propelled by a robotic arm? Lucky visitors to Terminal 3 of Singapore's Changi Airport get to experience this first-hand with Daisy, artist Christian Moeller's new exhibit. The flower is actually a fiberglass cargo ship propeller, and it tracks movement around it via several video cameras embedded in the sculpture's base. Cute? Freaky? Moeller, for one, believes this is a comedic and friendly way of welcoming people as they get off the plane. You can watch a video of Daisy in action and decide for yourself.
