Crystal

The installation synchronises a bespoke Christmas ice themed sound track with over 130x 1.3M white LED strips mounted inside acrylic spikes. The effect is a dramatic pulsating light show drawing the eye to a crystal exploding from the shop floor of the flagship Topshop store in Oxford Street, London.

The project, led by London based design studio NEON has involved weeks of research, design and planning the technical implementation, to ensure this high traffic, high visibility installation worked flawlessly during the 2015 Christmas shopping period.

The lighting is controlled by DMX LED drivers, which are chained together to an ENTTEC Open DMX Ethernet controller that receives ArtNet data from Vezér, an OS X timeline and control program by Imimot, Hungry.
