Challenge 534: Light-up Tetris
I was given this rather fine Tetris-inspired lamp for my birthday a few weeks ago. Each block is a separate piece, but when you pile them up each one makes contact with the one below and they all light up. Of course, the whole thing looks a lot better when it's plugged in. Can you oblige? Next Friday I'll post my photograph of the real thing, so you can compare. High res is here. ![]() |

How fascinating. I assume the sides of the blocks show the illumination as well? |

Yes, the lights are inside so the effect is seen all round. |

Re: Challenge 534: Light-up Tetris
In January 2008 for Contest 181: A speedy recovery (they were called contests then) I posted the following in response to the challenge of designing a get well card in Photoshop for Steve when he was unwell in hospital. "Tetris has given me many many hours of problem solving and is so much fun; just like the HTCIP Friday Challenge in fact. It therefore seems appropriate to make Steve's get well card in a Card-tris styleeeee... "http://s143.photobucket.com/albums/r160/BigVernphoto/card-tris.gif" " The sentiment remains .... I hope you are well! _________________ "Why so serious?" The Dark Knight |

http://vimeo.com/113886830 Funny, I was looking at these lamps last week thinking how cool they are. I loved playing Tetris on the Game Boy. My son and I would have play offs many years ago! ![]() _________________ Dorothy: "there's no place like home!" |

Hi Josephine Hope you don't mind, but I thought it was such a delightful image, and rather well suited to How to cheat. _________________ Perfect confidence is granted to the less talented as a consolation prize. |
