The Liquid Lights by Maarten De Ceulaer

The Liquid Lights evoke an atmosphere of mysterious laboratory experiments and mad scientists. The concept is simple; by adding a few drops of edible food colorants to the water inside the bottle, you can change the color of the lamp, and the atmosphere in the room. Although, it’s not even necessary to use color, regular transparent water creates beautiful optical effects, magnifying and deforming the sandblasted glass dome at the bottom of the lamp. One single LED illuminates this diffusing dome completely.

THE CHROMATIC TYPEWRITER

What a lovely new use for an old gadget. Washington-based painter Tyree Callahan has modified a traditional typewriter and turned it into a painting machine, or “Chromatic Typewriter”. Callahan submitted the beautiful typewriter as part of the 2012 West Prize competition, an annual art prize that’s determined by popular vote. The keys on the vintage 1937 Underwood Standard typewriter have each been replaced with a different pad of color to give some rather interesting results!
