via Pireeni, this lovely map tracking trains in New York's subway system as they leave and course through the city. As each line crosses another, it "plucks" it like a string, and you hear a thoughtfully chaotic music. Subway art. Enjoy.

The way it maps out itself is like watching the roots of plants spread out. Even though they sound a bit discorded, if you wait until the trains speed up and increase in number, you get a sensible tune. This is very smart, I wonder how it would sound if you map out the rush hour.
