making of: The Glyph


  • The Glyph measured 50 feet (16 metres) in diameter and weighs 3.2 tons

  • A team of over 50 designers, engineers and fabricators created the Glyph.

  • It took approximately 8 weeks to design and construct: 2 weeks to design with the engineers, 4 weeks to build the aluminum structure and 2 weeks to apply the LED lighting.

  • There are 455 LED light strips mounted onto 37 panels and a total of 113,096 LEDs of a pure orange color

  • The 'UFO' consumes 20 KW of power

  • The dynamic lighting effects are all powered and controlled from an onboard electrical and computer system

  • The effects were orchestrated by a remote control system in a boat following the Glyph.

  • The helicopter flew at a height of 600 feet (183 metres) with the Glyph suspended 350 feet (92 metres) above the River Thames and required a special helicopter licensed pilot from Norway.
