Come watch the"Tower of Lights" Display at the Theophilus Tower on the UI main campus, July 10, 9:00 - 10:00 PM.


TowerLights is a project of the UI branch of the Association for Computing Machinery - ACM - a club for students in Computer Science and related fields. It involves placing Light Emitting Diodes (LED's) in the front-facing rooms of the Theophilus Tower, and turning them on and off in sync with music. The result is a unique visual experience! The hardware and software have been developed from scratch by ACM students. The individual performances have been put together by artistic students from across campus. TowerLights was started by a group of dedicated Computer Science alumni, and was first presented for Homecoming in 2010. We did a show for Vandal Friday this past spring, and we hope to do another one for homecoming this fall.
