This Blood Lamp doesn’t look that bloody, but the way you turn it on can be considered gruesome. It only works once, and you need to add of a drop of your blood to activate it! The idea is to stop and think about how badly you need light before you use it. Designer Mike Thompson created the lamp in order to draw attention to how much energy we waste.
Love #RETNA . Snapped this in #downtown #LA years ago on my phone from a moving vehicle in the middle of the night; just uncovered it in the doldrums of my computer’s hard drive and I’m glad! (Taken with instagram)
Brilliant. If we all paused and considered how frivolously we used energy, conservation would be inevitable.
This is extreme and awesome. Extremely awesome.
