Retro gaming to wear!
April 17th, 2009 by LG Blog UK
OK, it's Friday on a four day week and the day got away from me a bit so I'm afraid the piece of literary genius I was intending to bring to you today will have to wait, but in it's place, I just have to share this with you.
This is totally BRILLIANT! It's an idea I wish I'd had first and I'm definitely going to spend the weekend trying to decide on what my skirt will look like.*

Shake Pole
April 12th, 2009 by LG Blog UK
This rather lovely installation by Richard Box caught my eye recently.
Shake Pole
831 fluorescent tubes powered by the electromagnetic field surrounding overhead power lines. 145 x 39 x 1.5 metres.
Spectators report that "touching the tubes altered how much light they produced and running your hand up and down changed where the light was too, as did touching the tube whilst jumping in the air."
