20x200 photographers Doug and Mike Starn have created an installation, Gravity of Light, to be unveiled this weekend as part of The Pittsburgh International Festival of Firsts.

From the press release:

Doug and Mike Starn explore the fact and metaphor of the gravity of light-a power so vast and universal it is almost unnoticed. At the center of the exhibit is the Starns' 13-foot homemade carbon arc lamp, an impressive structure serving as both a central work of sculpture and a scientific experimental device that illuminates with its blindingly bright light the installations around it.

The festival begins this Friday, October 10th, and continutes until October 30th (mischeif night!) is packed with things to see and experience. Here is a link to the schedule of events.
