“The inaugural Tokyo Hotaru festival was held last weekend. And kicking off the festivities were an impressive display of 100,000 LED lights – made to resemble hotaru (fireflies) – that floated down the Sumida River through central Tokyo. Dubbed “prayer stars,” the LEDs were provided by Panasonic, who claims that the balls, which were designed to light up upon contact with water, were 100% powered by solar energy. After illuminating a large stretch of the river, which also hosts a popular fireworks festival in the summer, the LEDs were all caught in a large net” by Spoon and Tamago.

Product designer Roshan Hakkim’s created UMBRA. UMBRA is a clock which takes us back to traditional system of sun dials. The clock works on the principle of shadow and lights. As kids we were always amazed by the change in our shadow lengths according to the sun position. Using this principle, by using TWO LIGHT sources which creates TWO SHADOWS, time can be communicated by altering the shadow length.

Yesterday we’ve posted the teaser animation for ‘Future Self I’. This is a short documentary about the project. An 3D grid of lights interact with a dancer(have a look at min. 7:30!).
Future Self studies human movement, mirroring interaction in dance, light and sound, while exploring the self, present and future.
Future Self brought together a media artist collective, rAndom International, a choreographer, Wayne McGregor, and a composer, Max Richter in a unique interdisciplinary clash at MADE.
The Future Self Project Film documents the creative working process, which began in London, England, continued in Berlin and culminated in three wonderful performances at MADE.
