I know it looks like a cross between the Aurora Borealis and a seismometer gone mad, but this is actually a graphical representation of the Bible (King James version).
.
Each of those tiny grey icicles near the bottom represents a chapter from the Bible, while the length of each shows how many verses are contained therein. The multicoloured arcs, in the meantime, show where there is cross-referencing going on; this may even only be some kind of allusion to an idea presented elsewhere, but often there will be events or people represented.
Obviously, each extreme of an arc will the be the appropriate verses, while the colour (and height, to prevent it becoming an unmanageable mess) shows just how far apart these verses are.

Reaching across the Atlantic, this amazing image was developed as a result of a collaboration between Lutheran pastor in Germany and a doctoral student of computer science in Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh.
