A beam of plasma appears to emanate from the center of a metal Fibonacci spiral, piercing a solid block of wood, warming its surrounds with quiet resonance.
* Built-in dimmer and available in an array of colors, materials, and finishes to fit every environment.
PRODUCTION PROCESS
Body:
This prototype was designed in CAD, wrought to life with human hands. The wooden base is made from the discarded cutoffs left behind by NYC road construction crews, CNC-carved, stained and finished to a high luster with tung oil. Many, many coats of tung oil. 😀
The brass, being infinitely recyclable, was rescued from the landfill, cleaned, welded, sanded, polished, sealed, and made into something timeless (like most of my creations).
* Configurable to single left-hand or right-hand helix, double-helix, and quad-helix configurations without additional tooling setup.
* Modularity and designed for scale. A laser-cut acrylic access plate is inset underneath to protect the electronics.
ELECTRONICS:
This initial prototype plugs in directly to standard AC outlets for simplicity, though it is engineered with ultra low voltage DC electronics that are perfect for a cordless, rechargeable version.
To get the effect I wanted for this version I had to engineer my own swappable micro-led-array-filament bulbs.
