Forged from the sloping angles of a rhombohedron, titanium members weave together to form hash signs on its four sides and on top as social media weaves into the fabric of our technological times.  This symbol turns the data of billions of souls vying to be seen and heard into meta-data, categorizes it and makes it searchable;  to share joys, beauty, injustices, grief…. and so much more, elevating our humanity.  Yet, represented by the perfection of its titanium surface scarred by scratches, these forces of light are tempered by the forces of darkness by its use to tear down our humanity.  One can sit on its timber benches and reflect on this symbols’ meaning to them in their personal lives as the reflecting pools reflect its aqua color onto its surface.
