The 21st Century Version Of The Lava Lamp
The Laserpod
is one of the most innovative lighting products to hit the scene
since peace, love, and understanding were the only things to strive
for. These days there are more interesting things to strive for.
For example every self-respecting geek realizes life would be empty
without interacting with the latest and greatest gadgets, gizmos
and doodads. Enter the Laserpod, it's a veritable cornucopia of
techno-appeal. This desktop sized device splits three electronic
lasers and three high-intensity blue and ultraviolet LEDs, then
throws them into a hand-cut faceted crystal to create some of the
most unique and memorable mood lighting you'll ever witness.
By default the Laserpod will cast it's mesmerizing and organic
lighting display up to your ceiling and around your room. This is
our favorite Laserpod mode. The changing patterns , colors and
textures that are projected are simultaneously alien and soothing.
Not alien in the Space-Marine eating variety, alien in the
otherwordly moonscape variety. You can also use the included
diffusers to subdue the projected effects and create a more
intimate setting contained within the Laserpod itself.
You can even interact with Laserpod by placing on top anything
optical. Glass, crystal or clear plastics will produce the most
profoundly beautiful effects that will continually evolve in time.
For the best Laserpod experience, the device should be activated in
complete darkness when the subtler, more meditative and organic
beams will be seen - these are quite extraordinary and are unique
to Laserpod.
The Laserpod is a patented invention of the innovative UK light
artist Chris Levine, whose varied and ground breaking work in light
has ranged from light sculptures for the band Massive Attack and
some of the leading edge fashion designers, to an historic hologram
portrait of the Queen of England. His work is about the experience
of seeing and the living power of light, an ethos that is distilled
into Laserpod. Sound too wish washy for you? Believe us, the
Laserpod belongs in Science Fiction decor.
