speed of light
virgin medias laser light installation by united visual artists has finally opened. uva were commissioned by virgin media to create 'an immersive light installation celebrating 10 years of broadband in the uk'. it comprises a series of laser-based experimental light works which flow through the labyrinthine spaces of the bargehouse, the four-storey ex-warehouse on london's south bank. on entering the space, visitors are asked to speak into a suspended microphone to answer questions displayed on the wall in front of them. their answers follow them around the building as they explore the various installations over four floors. these sounds and others, as well as light, are carried around the building using fibre optics, thus tying in with the broadband theme. see a video of the installation here.
