NIghtwriter Nyx writes with light text on the ground.
|
Nyx, goddess of the night, daughter of Chaos, pulls the dark nebula over the world while striding along the heavens.
Slowly Nyx writes light-emitting poetry in full darkness. Letter after letter the glowing text pours slowly and compact out of the machine. Once on the ground the letters form a glowing text layer on the street. The audience watches the writing process develops and reads the text with attention.
Nyx writes with a fine mixture of photoluminescent powder and special sand. The letters are illuminated with a ultraviolet light and charged to shine. Nyx writes one long line of text. A person with a light-bearing yoke, the light bearer, regularly walks by, re-energizing the light-emitting powder to make the text glow.
As long as the text is undisturbed it can be recharged. Due to the very fine nature of the powder mixture it lays better and longer than sand will.
The wonderful writer Nyx leads the text and the reader through the darkness.
