Drift Bubble Pop Table
Un homage du Sydney Devine

A coffee or occaisonal table, perhaps, the top of which is glass and lies a couple of inches above a shallow tray containing water. Around the edges and along the floor of the water tray are many mintute vents, which can fart, for want of a better word, tiny amounts of air or water, depending, into the shallow pool. By either preprogramming or manipulating on the fly, the once mirror-smooth surface of the pool can, with the dials turned up to 11, be made to fizz and bubble. On a more sedate setting, patterns of tiny bubbles can be created, shifting, fading, reemerging for your relaxing enjoyment.

       I don't see why not. You may only need a few centimeters of water for cool bubbly effects. Also, maybe have some oil spouts so you could have little colorful immiscible bubbles floating around, and they could be retrieved somehow.[+]
