May 12, 2016
FAIRFIELD, NJ (April 26, 2016) – The “Time/Light Wall” featuring Galaxy Glass & Stone’s exclusive MediaGlas™, is a dynamic, color changing grid composition with an underlying time telling function. The “Time/Light Wall” records time on a daily basis according to the color of the sky. This luminous media wall met several project specific challenges, including the ability to occupy a large wall area in a high-end lobby, provide site specific media function (time telling), and create an exciting visual display that only glass and LED can provide via MediaGlas™. The time telling function of the artwork is accomplished by several means:
- Animation within specific areas indicate second, minute, hour, and week
- Night/twilight/sunrise/sunset are indicated by color of minute pixel in hour block
- Season is indicated by color of month bands
- Perimeter band at top and bottom indicates day of the week
- Visual chime on hour and half hour
