Duct Tape Light

2008

– Sculptable light fixtures

I am interested in fusing computation into everyday and common objects like Duct Tape or binder clips.

Duct tape's material and form factor allows emergent user behaviors including lumping and rolling. What if the act of rolling the tape piece completed the circuit and lighted it up?

I created a prototype with vinylcult copper tapes, paper and conductive threads. Each tape piece module has contact strips running along both sides, 1F supercapacitor, LEDs and resistors. Sculpt and create your own sticky light fixtures!
