Check out this new bit of technology in the city.

'The Rotating Tower' designed by architect David Fisher generates it's own power from the wind. It will be built by stacking platforms on a central concrete core with wind turbines in between each of them. Each floor can rotate 360 degrees once about every 90 minutes. The different times of the rotating platforms will give the building a constantly changing form. Inside the central core will be the lifts, emergency stairs and lobbies.

'The rotating Tower' will be built in Dubai in the next 6 months.
