Kinelume Mk I

Owning a company that specialises in lighting control, I was put in touch with Alan, an artist seeking the repair of a lighting controller he had for an art installation.

Alan was looking to revisit his artworks and this one last saw service in America some 30 years or more prior, although it had been exhibited in UK & Europe previously. I fancied a challenge so I arranged to meet up with Alan and was shown the unit, beaten and battered sitting on a desktop still with a US plug top…
