Jim on Light is written by Jim Hutchison, Chief Design Consultant of I just found the most ridiculous awful lit-up thing – an LED umbrella with LEDs composing the shaft of the umbrella. That’s pretty cool in my opinion. Now if I could only slap an effects engine into the umbrella and make the umbrella itself unrippable, then I am set!
Check out the umbrella on Brando’s website – and check out the video and pictures below. It’s running around $50 shipped I think, which is a little rich for my blood right now. Cool umbrella though!
Have you seen Blade Runner, Jim? There’s very similar umbrellas in that movie.
Wow, I haven’t seen that movie since you were about eight years old!
you don’t act like it jim
HA! Can I take that as a compliment?
