More pictures from my personal collection taken at a previous Hubbell Open House. Don't forget to pick up your tickets for this year, the event is only a couple of weeks away (June 17th!) If you can't make it, fear not, I'll be there with camera in hand during the morning tour.
Interactive art lighting...I'm there. UK design research studio Loop.ph created this wonderful canopy out of electroluminescent fibers which respond to movement by creating patterns.

This one is close enough that I can actually visit! Located in San Francisco, the Exploratorium is a museum of science, art and human perception (it says so right on their website! Handy for blogging copy, that.)
The Wave Organ is an "acoustic sculpture," which means I'm on-board right from the start. Actually, I'm on-board at Sculpture and Acoustic is icing on the cake. An acoustic piece of sculpture isn't complete without audio, so when you visit the web page you will be treated to some of the musical stylings of The Wave Organ.
Eye candy for a Monday morning. These lovlies are by photographer Lee Eunyeol and being featured currently at the Gana Art Space in Seoul. The collection is titled "Starry Night" appropriately enough.
I love these not just because they have an ethereal fairy-like quality to them, but they bring out elements in the landscape that you wouldn't notice in falling light.
Another project I would do with big piles of money: a night lighting garden. How wonderful would something like that be? Grab a glass of wine and wander through a beautifully lit garden at night. Sigh.
Being a fan of organic architecture, I can't even begin to describe how I reacted to the idea of Printable Houses. To say my eyes lit up and I began to jitter like a caffeine addict standing outside of a closed Starbucks would be an understatement.

What sort of other amazing things can you build? Can we finally move past boring boxes?
