This lamp was made from a replica of the designer’s brain which was scanned with a MR scan at the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm.

Paul Cocksedge is he brain behind this idea. The principle is simple: light travels along an acrylic rod from the source in the concrete base and follows the bended plastic before emerging as a light beam.

This elegant lamp changes the perception that light travels in a straight line. It provides ambient light as well as a focussed, directional beam.

The lamp is very simple regarding materials of construction , not something fancy but is very eye catching!

Pole (that is it’s name) is available as a floor light or table lamp.

“I wanted to create the illusion of bending light on an everyday scale. In order to achieve this I needed
to send rays of light on a journey of internal reflection,” explains Paul Cocksedge.

Hanyoung Lee is the designer of the Virtual Wall which is a plasma laser barrier showing pedestrians crossing the street. The lasers are not powerful enough to harm cars or people but the effect is enough to make drivers stop and let the pedestrians cross.

A weird idea is the concept called “adlights” or “traffic ads” where the light beam is more focused with a lot of colors to create visual ads. Is a secret project for Google? Who knows…

Maybe in a few years you will see adverts from this blog when you wait at the traffic light .
