After spending four years making installation art, I graduated with a fine arts degree in New Media and have an unwavering fascination with technology-based art (and design). So every time I see something like what's in the pictures above, I can't help but exclaim, "How new media!". I had the same reaction to Hussein Chalayan's transforming dresses. His creations were a lot more complex then these illuminated sea cookie pins from Stephanie Simek, but all it takes is a simple LED to dazzle me.

How pretty! I adore sand dollars and they're even more lovely lit up this way.
