“Field of Light” by Bruce Munro (currently installed at the Eden Project in Corwall, UK) consists of 6,000 acrylic stems connected with fiber optic cables ending in a clear glass sphere. The stems themselves hold no power, so there are 11 external projectors that send light to the balls while the entire installation covers an area of 60 x 20 meters with over 24,000 meters of fiber optic cable. Pretty impressive build, although we wouldn’t want to be untangling these cables after the install is over.
