The Aeolian Tower was an art installation on the South Bank of the River Thames in London, consisting of a 15-metre (49 ft) steel tower covered in 1200 wind-powered LEDs.[1] It was in place beside the Waterloo Bridge for three days, 14–16 November 2008.

Designer Zena Bruges explained her intention to "visualize the invisible, making people realize that there's a lot of energy out there that we're not using". The Aeolian Tower was part of the onedotzero "Adventure in Motion" festival at London's BFI Southbank.[2]
