This is an awesome prototype lighting system, by Maarten De Ceulaer, that combines several “atom lights” to form molecules. “Pick a magical atom of light from the molecule, and take it with you, where ever you want. When fully recharged, the spheres will give light for approximately 4 hours. When the light starts to faint, simply plug it back on the molecule, so it can recharge. The shape of the molecule is completely amorphous, you can place the lamp in any possible position, flip it around, turn or twist it, to create a different look every time again.” I hope this goes into production at some point.

I love these! They would be a perfect gift for any science geek. For me, I would want the Serotonin or Mescaline molecule. They’re handmade by artist Ed Steckley, of Celestine Glass. “The molecules are made of borosilicate glass as 3D representations of 2D molecular structures (so they can lie flat on a table). Different elements–carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, etc–are represented by different color glass. Contributors can choose the molecular structure of psychoactive chemicals such as DMT, LSD, MDMA, Psilocin, Nitrous Oxide, and Serotonin.” Source: Erowid
