Whenever I turn on the lamp in my room, it's natural that for my rapacious consumption of the earth's energy to remind me that I am in some way shape or form engaging in gluttonous behavior; seeing as gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins, I am sure to be damned to the netherworld. It's a good thing then that Dutch Architect Luc Merx has designed the Damned MGX, a lampshade composed of algorithmically writhing nudes recalling the classical motif of the Fall of The Damned. That way I can get a full on visual of the place where my conspicuous consumption is taking me every time I pop on my lamp to read Dante's Inferno.
