Brain lamp:

Designer Alexander Lervik created this wonderful table lamp based on a 3D reconstruction of his own brain scan.

"MYBrain. The table lamp

A replica of the designer's brain, originated from an MR scan at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm.

The image was processed through a 3D-printer, and became this unusual lamp shade design. Yes, it is bright."

Although perhaps the coolest, this is not the first brain lamp we've come across.

Indeed, it would make a good accompaniment to the plasma brain lamp we featured back in early 2007.
