Can our library have one of these?

Seattle Public Library's new art installation combines beautiful electronic images with what people are checking out of the library.  Artist George Legrady created a piece that notes what is being checked out (not by whom), delays the stream by one hour (for obvious real-time privacy issues), and displays the results in color-coded streams on six huge plasma screens.  Pretty darn neat.
