Commissioned by Virgin Media, UVA created Speed of Light to celebrate 10 years of broadband Internet.
In April 2010, the installation took over all four storeys of the industrial art-space Bargehouse on the Thames riverside for a period of 10 days. Visitors were invited to immerse themselves in a massive labyrinth of laser sculptures, built on the idea of speed being light, and light being data.
