[LM_NET] GEN Light sculpture at LSE Library

[Lesley Johnson <lcjohnsonvip@TELUS.NET>]

Well, here's a fascinating idea to showcase how a library is being used for
research - at the London School of Economics, a light sculpture entitled
"Bluerain" by San Francisco sculptor Michael Brown:

'Observed from a distance the artwork looks like shimmering cascades of
light, or blue rain, but on closer observation it becomes clear that the
blue rain is made up of words,' said Michael Brown. 'These reflect research
being carried out within the Library and include online searches as well as
titles of materials being checked in and out of the Library.'
