Where the internet lives

I was going to post about this after this Wired article came out which included a couple of decent photos of the interior with those fantastic coloured pipes. Then It’s nice that found a few more photos.

Seems like a superb commission to get – be the first official photographer within Google’s data centres, especially if you are anyway nerdy. I would love to shoot something like this (and get paid for it). The scale of it is ridiculous as well as those pipes being colour coded which reminds me of an excerpt from the Steve Jobs bio where his first factory in the US is done out like this. All the robots painted Apple colours of the time. The Google pipes almost seem Willy Wonka like in a way.

There’s also a walk through video which is also pretty interesting.
