We had a great time at the American Steel Studios Art And Industry open house last night. Once again I was inspired by Amphora and their amazing 10,000+ individually addressable LED lights from Cool Neon.

Jules has done it again! She has taken the concept of turning UNAVERZ into a Lobata to the next level. Using her multi-media talents, she has created a number of great concept pieces.
