united visual artists: speed of light
image: UVA
the london-based art and design practice united visual artist recently presented a series of light
installation titled ‘speed of light’. the project was commissioned by virgin media to commemorate the
tenth anniversary of broadband in the UK. the project was installed in the victorian bargehouse on
london’s south bank and made use of 148 lasers spread across six rooms. UVA used the beam of light
that travels along optical fibers as the starting point for the piece. among the pieces created, UVA crafted
a small sitting area that features a sofa, table and television screen made completely from laser beams.

I can't let the only comment on this be 'First'.
This was a very cool installation. I wonder how much time and money they had to put into designing then implementing this.

i know lasers are a bit 80's now but what a way to keep it fresh. what is it about them that is so mesmerizing.
