Login. The Future of Mobile Applications - It's Not the iPhone - C. One of the big takeaways from the Web 2.0 Expo is Google's belief that the mobile phone is gaining momentum as the defacto platform for applications. Vic Gundotra, Google's VP Engineering emphasized this point in his keynote and also in an interview with Tim O'Reilly. Here's some of what he said - "The mobile phone is the most personal of personal computers" I don't think anyone would dispute that statement today but that shows how far our thinking as an industry has evolved over the past 3-4 years.

We were very honored to be invited to participate in a lighting design competition run by our good friends at Electrolight called Lightcycle as part of the Melbourne Indesign recently, with the exhibition launched last night.

Briefed to utilize a supplied LED system, and focus on sustainability, we decided to challenge ourselves and develop an outcome using recycled components, that could itself at a later date be recycled, upgraded and have no moving parts, glues or fixings…. Designing for longevity is a conscious reaction to a generation of consumer electronics designed to one day be replaced. While plastics degrade, paints fade, and mechanisms break, our competition entry is a functional, solid metal LED luminaire designed to last.

Cast in 100% recycled aluminum from old car parts, our luminaire contains no glues and can be easily dissembled. By balancing on various faces, striking lighting effects can be achieved for tasks or mood lighting an adjustable light with zero moving parts.
