BBC 2 Steam Ident

BBC 2 Steam Ident From 1995-1999
This featured a metallic '2' of extremely hot temperature, as a ring of syringes dispensed water droplets which fell onto and around the figure. Any drops landing on the boiling '2' instantly evaporated into steam, and upon impact were accompanied by a tinkling sound on the audio track. The soundtrack was slightly similar to that of both 'Sign' and 'Silk'. Withdrawn at the end of 1999.

An absolutely beautiful ident. I know it's called 'Steam' but I also feel a sort of 'Space' vibe to this one as well. When you think about it, the texture of the '2' looks similar to the surface of a planet or moon. The water drops combined the with sound effects and music creates the appearance/feel of shooting stars, comets, especially when some of them hit the '2'. This may or may not have been the intended effect, but in any case it's amazing!
