That sounds really interesting. I never thought about it that way before but I guess (dry) snow isn't very conductive.

Are there any articles about or pictures of this project out there anywhere?

i thought there was, but unfortunately the computer society seem to be having issues with their infra at the moment so i can't find anything other than the DC3 blurb on the "systems" page. i remember it being called "dc3" because it was a "data cube"

I know that it started when this video from the university of Helsinki was being passed around in spring of 2013 and we all thought it was hilarious... then during summer break some guys started building a makeshift platform in one of the courtyards.
