Tron dreams: Enlighted illuminated clothing.



"Janet Cooke Hansen (blog) is President and Chief Fashion Engineer of Enlighted Designs, Inc. She founded the business to create her own "dream job" as a light-up clothing designer.

Janet's eclectic designs combine her lifelong interests of fashion, art, and technology. She learned to sew at age 7, and installed miniature lights in her own dollhouse. Over the years, her costume-making hobby began to incorporate electronics, with illuminating results.

With more than ten years of experience in this newly-emerging field, Janet is well known as a pioneer and innovator, creating unique apparel for a variety of international clients.

This "Off Road German Wheel" is a piece of acrobatic equipment, designed and built by Eric Raymond of Solar Flight Inc. The luminescent pneumatic tires were created specifically for the surface of the Black Rock Desert (for use at Burning Man 2004)."
