YO BABY TAKE THIS LIGHT AND ENJOY IT...

SO WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT IS LIQUID LIGHT.
CREATED BY DESIGNER CHRISTINA FERRAZ RIGO
IN SHORT...LIGHT IS NOT ATTATCHED TO THE BULB ITSELF BUT IS ITS OWN ENTITY
NOW...THIS IS ONE OF THE ILLEST INNOVATIONS THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE...
BUT...
HOW BRIGHT DOES IT GET???
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT SPILLS(because it will spill)
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A LIL KID DRINKS THIS EXTREMELY FASCINATING LOOKING LIQUID
WHAT HAPPENS IF I DIP A LIGHT BULB IN THIS???
CAN I THROW IT UP IN THE SKY AND MAKE IT RAIN LIGHT???
CAN I THROW IT IN THE CLUB AND MAKE IT RAIN LIGHT ON THEM HOES???
WHAT IF I WANNA WEAR IT SO I CAN LIGHT UP?!?!?!?
HUH?!?!?!?

THIS IS WHAT THE DESIGNER HAD TO SAY:
"My first lamp explores the greatest metaphorical potential of my project by presenting liquid light in its most pure state: as a liquid contained in a bottle that can be manipulated as liquids normally are. Along with this bottle, I have created a set of two glasses that represent a lamp and a bulb – see pictures on the right. By pouring the liquid light into the glasses, the object meaning is given to the light – two new lamps have been created. However, the liquid remaining in the bottle reminds you of its intangible essence – there is no need of a lamp in order to have light. Light remains unattached to an object and able to be placed in any imagined context. I have used the quotidian gesture of pouring as a way to attach, or detach, light to its archetypes.
For the other lamp, I worked with the pervasive idea of the lamp. I worked with proportions and shape in order to create a perfectly recognizable archetype of a lamp. Alongside this process, I implemented the idea of liquid light by using the archetype of liquid, a tap. Therefore, I created a lamp that looks typical when first seen, but creates a hint of curiosity and delight when a closer look is given and the tap on it is noticed. The user starts then to imagine how the lamp would work, and ends up discovering that the lamp switches on – gives light – when the liquid light starts to fill it. In order to switch it off, the tap has to be open and the liquid released."
