Unique in the UK, this is the largest permanent cold cathode light
installation to date. This project at Wolverhampton University’s
Art and Design School is a part of a series of light installations
in Wolverhampton starting in 1996. The installation uses 84 individually
electronically programmed cold cathode tubes.
The building’s facade comes into its own at night, when it
becomes animated in changing fields and patterns of colour and
light in a continuous sequence. Completed in 2001, the installation
was initially programmed by Art2architecture, the intention being
to instigate opportunities for the staff and students of the school
to later change it and appropriate in their own way. |
