A short film by Jacob Sutton featuring Artec pro-snowboarder William Hughes at Tignes in the Rhône-Alpes in a customized suit covered in LED lights.

The Luminari De Cagna – an eye-candifying 28 metre high colonnade fitted with 55,000 LEDs that stole the show at last week’s 2012 Light Festival in Ghent, Belgium.
The whole thing consumed just 20kW/h of electricity.
