Does blood turn you on? If you're Mike Thompson'sBlood Lamp then the answer is yes. First you need to break off the top off the glass. Next you dissolve some sort of tablet into the mystery solution (Luminol). Finally you rake your little thumbelina across the top of the jagged glass, drip a little bit of god's fresh-squeezed cranberry juice in there, and watch the lamp light up. But why would our friend Mike create a single-use blood powered lamp when we have this little thing called electricity in our walls?
The simple flick of a switch allows us to power appliances and gadgets 24/7 without a thought to where it comes from and the cost to the environment....By creating a lamp that can only be used once, the user must consider when light is needed the most, forcing them to rethink how wasteful they are with energy, and how precious it is.
