Schadenfreude Cyclops Lamps

The Cyclops Lamps are new at this round of SaNaRae!  Something of a companion piece for the UFO lamps, the Cyclops lamps come in a matching colour palette (9 candy coloured plastics, 3 matte metals, 4 shiny metals, and 7 colours of lightbulb), but instead of an unidentified flying object (from space!), they are a bit more surreal take on what could be a one eyed inhabitant of one of those saucers.  Or a venus flytrap.  Or just a kind of weird lamp, that likes staring at you.


There are 4 types of lamp: the table lamp includes left and right bent versions; the floor lamp includes 3 heights, each with left and right bent versions; the wall lamp includes a straight drop down, and looking left and right; and 4 drop lengths of ceiling lamp.  You can adjust the drops on those some, to have a bit longer or shorter drop from the ceiling.  All eyes are scripted to rotate, or you can rotate them by hand to swivel and look around a little.  The lights are also scripted to remember your settings if you choose to change them (if the light is a little too bright for your space age pad, or a little dark, or not quite the right shade of purple with the purple bulb, you can instruct it to light differently, and it will remember those settings when anyone touches it on or off).  Three light types are included- projector lights that cast light just in the direction the eye is looking; no projector cast lights that light omnidirectionally; and no cast light that turns on with fullbright and glow, and will not ruin your otherwise designed lightscape.

At SaNaRae from April 26 at 7pm SLT to May 15.

Schadenfreude Skeletal Globes

A pair of globes for the Engine Room.  They both come in 7 distressed metal options, with ribs on the latitudes and longitudes covered by land masses.


There is just the globe, and also a lamp version featuring a bare bulb inside the globe.  The lamp version has 3 light versions- no cast light which just "lights up" the bulb but does not contribute environmental lighting, no project which is a soft omnidirectional light, and projection which projects the shadow of the ribs below it.  All light or extinguish when touched by anyone, and you can also touch and hold for 5 seconds (or so, with lag) to get a menu with light options to change, if you wish it to be brighter or darker or whatnot.


At the Engine Room April 20 - May 20!
