Maker Faire Bay Area 2009
Bluerain

Location:   Expo Hall  311   

Commissioned for the London School of Economics and due to be installed in July, more than 23,000 blue LEDs cover this 7'x28' installation. Light appears to flow down the wall, but what one sees are actually words flowing through each other at different rates. Maker Faire visitors can use handheld portable devices to contribute text to the artwork.
