12 ft LED Metatron’s Cube sculpture: All-One Sphyr
A spinning Metatron’s Cube AllSphyr, 12 ft tall, its framework threaded with 10,000 programmable LEDs, available to rent for festivals and events across the country.
Built to be seen from across a field.
The All-One Sphyr is the AllSphyr ring geometry in the form of Metatron’s Cube, made at festival scale: 8 ft 8 in by 12 ft tall, and it spins. Its 10,000 programmable LEDs run through the whole framework, so after dark the form becomes a star of light that can be found from anywhere on a site.
It mounts on scaffolding or truss, which means it can be raised to any height by crane or boom lift and set where the most people will see it.
From the playa to the National Mall.
The piece was first funded by Dr. Bronner’s Magic Soaps. It has stood at Burning Man, where Alex and Allyson Grey painted murals beneath it during the playa’s foam daytime party, and at Catharsis on the Mall in Washington, D.C. It appears in the Netflix feature film Yes Day, and it has travelled to many West Coast art and music festivals.
Nathan Skyhorse’s large-scale installation work has been at Burning Man every year since 2013.
Renting it.
The All-One Sphyr is available to rent for festivals and events across the country. A rental is planned around the whole window, not only the hours of the event: transport, rigging, power, installation, strike and return are part of the quote, and the venue, access and weather are reviewed before a date is confirmed. Rentals generally begin around $1,000 and require a signed rental agreement, confirmed insurance and typically a 50% deposit.
The rental policy sets out reservation, insurance, care and cancellation. The other pieces available for an event are on the rentals page.
