Complex Gear Assembly

This incredibly complex assembly of gears, sprockets and chains makes a perfect metaphor for relationships, infrastructure and the inner workings of business. Who couldn't be entranced by this jigsaw puzzle of teeth meshing with teeth, of chains wrapping around gears and of the most complex assembly imaginable? This image can indicate excess and needless complexity or a case of highly refined and tuned performance. 

Technology And Complexity

Technology and complexity are married in this gear and sprocket cluster, this intricate mechanism, that can be used to bring attention to issues around the increasing complexity of technology both in terms of software and hardware. As our business and personal lives increasingly migrate to the Internet, the need for visual metaphors to address that migration and the accompanying increase in intricacy, is also skyrocketing.

Gears, Sprockets, And Teamwork

Gears, sprockets and chains working together in harmony is a great metaphor for teamwork. This image is a great reflection of how teamwork requires connection and synchronized movement.
