This Blood Lamp doesn’t look that bloody, but the way you turn it on can be considered gruesome. It only works once, and you need to add of a drop of your blood to activate it! The idea is to stop and think about how badly you need light before you use it. Designer Mike Thompson created the lamp in order to draw attention to how much energy we waste.

Years ago, mental institutions used a simple test to see if one of their patients was ready to be released. They had a room with a sink in it and not much more. They would plug the drain, turn on the faucet, and allow the sink to overflow.
Then, they would ask the patient if they would enter the room with a mop and bucket to clean up the water. What happened next was the true test.
If a patient walked into the room and turned off the running water before they began mopping, they were deemed to be ready for release. Sadly, however, many patients would enter the room and begin mopping the floor without turning off the water. Although they were performing the task that was asked of them, they were unable to easily identify the source of the water—the running faucet.
