Just finished installing a couple of Grateful Dead themed works for a man that loves the band more than anyone I know. When he suggested I do something on the side of his guest house I immediately envisioned the classic Maxell tape ad that was created in 1979. It has always been iconic to me and visualizes the way I like to experience music. The speaker is a JBL L100 model and is 25” tall. I used that info to scale everything by. I made the lampshade at @theglassspot in Richmond and carefully cut it in half. My cousin Chris at McBride sign company helped me with the layout, aluminum cutout and the vinyl image. There are four channels of dimmers to the many LEDs so it could be tuned just right. The other install at the end of the hallway is an internally lit aluminum cutout with wood veneer applied which was lightly burned for contrast to the stone wall.

Listening to the sounds of making can be an overlooked experience. How we listen can offer unexpected creative inspiration. There is comfort in the hum of machinery, metal being forged and welded, wood being shaped, drilled, and sanded and glass being blown, where the repetition of practiced hands are bringing ideas into form. These are some of the sounds behind the custom light fixtures we create. I invite you to close your eyes and listen.
