tetris muse

it's crazy how many ads and other films have been inspired by the simple shape-stacking game called tetris. here is a small collection for your viewing pleasure...

mikontalo lights...
The object of MIKONTALOLIGHTS was to create the world's physically largest colored graphics platform by using the windows of Mikontalo's D-staircase as light pixels. The platform was used to play Tetris and other games and present demos created by the students of Tampere University of Technology. The project climax was on December the 4th when the new lights of Mikontalo were lit. The goal was to gain global visibility for Tampere University of Technology and the rich student culture of the Uni.
