Urban UFO
Posted by Shirley Twofeathers in art, car
1985: This "urban UFO" was seen on the streets of New York, Chicago, Boston, Montreal, Amsterdam, Basel, Berlin, Brussels and Nagoya. 
Created by Eric Staller, an artist living in Amsterdam, the LIGHTMOBILE was the first in what he called the urban UFOs series. 
This Volkswagen beetle is covered with 1659 lamps that are computerized into 20 different patterns of light flowing over the car. Want to see it in action?
Pretty cool, huh?
The following pictures show how it was made.
