United Kingdom's largest Festival of Lumiere Durham Lantern Festival recently in the United Kingdom held in Durham. Every Lantern Festival is held in the days, this town of less than 50,000 population influx from the United Kingdom visitors from all over, there are nearly 200,000 visitors this year.

This time, designed by designers, artists of all sorts of interesting light installations (this year is 29) distributed throughout the Durham – outside the Church, River, city center square, in front of local University Library, or even in the cemetery. Residents and visitors come to the city center to see those large installation, but not many people will be in a corner of a windfall.

Each session of the Lumiere Festival of plays will take place in Durham Cathedral. This church built in the 11th century is a masterpiece of Norman architecture (also important shot of Hogwarts in the Harry Potter movies).

As in previous years, the year, outer wall of the Cathedral turned religious paintings, changing glow on the top to the audience about the local history and stories in the Gospels. However, the Interior is equally amazing this year from France artist Miguel Chevalier design huge light art "tangled web (Complex Meshes)" appeared in the dome of the Church, and abstract images continue to distort, change, move, this ancient building brings a wonderful sense of science fiction.

This "tangled web" like we often do in building or see modeling of three-dimensional grids, points, lines, surfaces of different colors together, triangles, quadrilaterals, and other polygons formed by stacking each other, constantly changing. It is an interactive device that uses sensors to perceive movement of tourists in the nave, visitors step change on the Dome light will turn into another kind of like. Looks a bit like a virtual reality world.

Vaults can be clearly seen on some cross the line, it is not set for this device by wires or other equipment, and what is most characteristic of the Durham Cathedral itself. Structure of the Cathedral arch cross, an "x" shape and the weight of the vault by the structure below the steering column, the ceiling and walls can be thinner, lighter. This was ground-breaking at the time, also church buildings more fine, slender Gothic style around.

When the light-Ray lines interweave with the vault itself, but also to create a history and future of illuminated scene.

This year's Lumiere Festival is the fourth. When it was first organized in 2009 was only planning to do a one-time event, Durham City Government commissioned the creative company Artichoke with some wonderful art installation to this city, encouraged the public to participate. Lantern Festival is very popular, good reputation and real increase in income in the local economy in the short term, and the Festival will continue, held once every two years. This time, late November cold Durham will become warm and to warm up.
