This sculpture was created by Jeff Lieberman and in his words, “This is not a trick or a photoshop manipulation. The bulb and the casing contain hidden circuitry [shown in figures] that uses electromagnetic feedback to levitate the bulb roughly 2.5″ from the nearest object, and uses coupled resonant wireless power transfer to beam power from the housing into the bulb itself.” This is quite a bit of interesting technology, and who knows what the future might hold. It is possible that in the future we will do away with cords and plugs and simply place electronics near a power source to charge them. A video of the light bulb in action is shown below.
