IALD Rocky Mountain: Chase The Dark
Join your Rocky Mountain local lighting enthusiasts in creating upcycled tea light luminaires!
Chase the Dark, the global event encouraging every lighting enthusiast to play with light! This unique, 24-hour celebration follows the rising sun as it "chases" the darkness westward from one side of the International Date Line to the other.
Now in its 11th year, lighting designers, students, and enthusiasts worldwide join in a creative activity around the theme of 'Upcycling,' which refers to using and reusing "found materials" for a new and possibly even better purpose.
This year we will be creating single tea light luminaires with upcycled and found materials. Anything you have at home or office is fair game!
Ski goggles that had their last run this season? The foam out of an old sample case? A bunch of dead markers? If you can rescue it from the refuse and give it new light and new life, you're doing it right!
