Encastrable is French collective which does guerrilla interventions at gardening and DIY megastores in the Paris area. They just use the materials available in the stores for their temporary installations and sculptures. They didn’t ask for permission so it was only a matter of time till the employees cleaned up behind them.

Wait till I come! » Blog Archive » Generating charts from accessible data tables and vice versa using the Google Charts API
Google have lately been praised for their chart API and my esteemed colleague Ed Eliot has a workaround for its restrictions in terms of caching and server hits. I played around a bit with it and thought it very cool but it felt a bit clunky to add all these values to a URL when they could be in the document for those who cannot see pie charts.
