SMS Controlled UFOs - Untitled (UFO) with 3,000 LEDs (VIDEO)
Untitled (UFO) with 3,000 LEDs

What a way to celebrate the 4th of July!  New York artist Peter Coffin collaborated with London-based Cinimod Studio, on this awesome, 7-meter UFO-ish piece of art that is remotely controlled via SMS. The aluminum structure was covered with 3,000 bright, individually controllable Color Kinetics LED lights. The UFO drew its power from a built-in 6kW generator.

The UFO made its debut on 4th July 2008 as a part of the Gdansk Festival of Stars in Poland.

To realise the UFO, Cinimod Studio worked closely with a multitude of specialist suppliers, and monitored the progress via regular workshop visits. A “transfer of technologies” saw electronic and mechanical designs developed for a standard application re-appropriated and modified for integration within the UFO project (cinimodstudio)
