Hoping to add another element to the so-called light graffiti, creatives at Howeler + Yoon architecture are using the Schuylkill River in Pennsylvania as a huge canvas to carve out the 'Light Drift'. It's a temporary interactive lighting installation that goes beyond the bank to the river itself. The installation creates a field of lights that transform in color and intensity based on the public interaction with it. The orbs-shaped lighting elements come equipped with electronics that allow them to respond to a viewer and to communicate with each other. Each orb in the field is a vacuum formed translucent shell molded from PETG, a milky-colored non-toxic and fully recyclable material that is easy to mold, and acts as a diffusing element for the lighting inside. The custom micro controllers and wireless transmitters control the orbs, while LED lighting allow them to illuminate and play with colors. The orbs are placed both on land and in water, creating a spectacular view. The orbs arranged in a diagonal grid flaunt a beautiful green color normally, but when a visitor approaches a land orb, the orb will start shifting between blue and green. In case the visitor sits on it, the pulsing will transition to a blue state. As far as the water orbs are concerned, they are aligned with the land orb and change colors with the ones on land. Backed by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Light Drift will create a mesmerizing view from October 15 to October 18 along the Schuylkill banks side of the river, between Market Street and Chestnut Street. It is anticipated that after this stunning artwork is de-installed, it could be reinstalled at a second venue in Boston, on the Charles River.

Barack Obama Lamp

Barack Obama Luminary Lamp
 President-elect Barack Obama inspired a Windward Oahu artist to create a special lamp. Mark Chai made this lamp in his studio on Kailua Beach. He got the idea of making a luminary for Obama's inauguration because, he said, the President-elect represents the light of hope.

Chai showed it to his neighbor, Dr. Debbie Buccigrossi, who's going to the inauguration. She's now taking some of them with her to give to Obama. Chair recounted, "As I showed it to her, she was ecstatic. 'Oh my God, that's Barack Obama, I can't believe you did that,' she said."

Chai said he hopes Obama will see it "and know how much he inspires all of us."

This is just one of two designs Chai made. The luminaries seen in this story are hand-cut from cardstock paper with Obama's profile and the inauguration date, 1-20-09. They come with an LED "candle" or you can place a votive candle inside. They are mementos for Chai's friends and Obama's family, and are not for sale now.

However, Obama fans can buy a limited edition table lamp, hand-cut from Hawaii recycled plastic and a koa wood base. Each has a compact fluorescent bulb and measures 15" high, 13" across at the top, and depth at the base is 5". Only 10 will be made. The lamps are selling for $1000 each.
