Jimmy Chion, Jason Chua, and Kiran Malladi are the creators of Lightchimes, a beautiful lamp made from 169 hanging LED pendants. The circuit is simple, but the results are complex. This project is about interaction- without interference from a participant, the lights would never shine. Similarly, without collaborative interaction, this project would never have become a reality.
Lightchimes will be at Maker Faire Bay Area, May 21 & 22, where you can experience the mesmerizing twinkling firsthand.
