Bright Lights in the Grips of your Fingertips
When I first read the mail from the designer (Christian Precht) of this project, I thought it was Jesus Christ the Son of God and Industrial Design! Turns out Christian Precht isn’t devine, just a clever renderer and a super designer. Precht’s product is called “Add-it-on,” and it’s organic. Clip on, clip on, LEDs to light your night so you can keep on, keep on.
Precht was inspired by growth in nature: “L-systems, cell breeding, or brownian motion.” Each of those little creature objects you see connected together there is a flexible luminescent light fractal. They link together, each daisy-chaining power to the next – energized by one near a power plug (or within reach of a power cord).
Add ons include rods, spotlights, pencil holders, and dimmers.
Answer me this, everyone: how many clever little lamps is enough? The answer is: no to many is too many. Word to little lamps.
Designer: Christian Precht

Cool Concept! I love the form and using “L-systems, cell breeding, or brownian motion” as inspiration was a great idea. I have one question tho!
The more connections you make the more light is emmitted. What if I want a creative form with many lights (pic 3. white background) on my desk and a ambient light in my room. Is there a way to toggle them off and on individually?
I think the ability to cut them all on individually would be a great add on. (pun intended) – Maybe touch sensitive? – Dont know. I am not sure what would be best.
Also I love your use of the arrows in the render. Next step would be some renders of it in creative color combinations and in user context! Id love to see HUGE and tiny versions of your product! Great concept. Design on!

pointless

Lots and lots of work needed on the connection point, huge loads there. You keep adding lights, kool but quickly the whole thing is going to break apart, not cool. Oh zippy is looking for some designers and illustrators, so if you feel you have the talent drop me a line at zippyflounder.com

Yes it`s similar idea to X-System of Ross Lovegrove, but with 3D using
