I have to hand it to the BA Interactive Design students at the London College of Printing... I popped into their studio at about 4:45pm to say hi and see if they wanted to take on a quick creative challenge. The thing is, tonight's the annual MacUser Awards ceremony when companies get Maxine trophies if they've made outstanding stuff. Anyway, I took my dress suit to college (teaching all day) but forgot my cufflinks.
About half an hour after suggesting that they come up with a creative solution to my problem - a pair of LED lights were being fashioned into cuflinks for me!
I'm now sitting on the Tube (typing into my phone) with glowing LED light, very slick, cool things, holding the cuffs of my dress shirt together. The wires run up each sleeve and down the inside of my shirt into small battery holders, one in each pocket. Altogether it took Min (who is now my interactive tailor) about an hour to fashion the electric cufflinks, test them, and put them into my shirtsleeves. I am so delighted that I can't think what to say! I can hardly wait to get to the event... Just another three stops.
