Cosmic Rays from Slinky Toys

Remember those glow-in-the-dark stickers you used to put on your ceiling to make you room look like outer space? Well, here's a much better way to do it. Designer Georgiosi of Objects With Light (OWL) creates these cosmic light fixtures using common household objects like screws, marbles, bolts, saw blades, and Slinky toys. The one shown here is called Screwed Light. Want to see another?


This one is called Sun Light. Georgiosi says he looked for everyday trinkets that would optimize light transmission, then put them together to make these cool lamps. Images by Georgiosi
