The Bubbling Tale of Who Invented the Lava Lamp
Has there ever been a piece of home decor that more perfectly encapsulates an era than the Lava Lamp? An icon of the psychedelic and hippie movements of the 1960s and 70s, this mesmerizing tube of undulating, brightly-coloured blobs is the perfect mood-setting accessory for when you just want to lay back in your bean bag chair, consume an illegal substance - or two - strum a few lines of your new protest song, and just groove, man. Given the lamp’s indelible association with the counterculture, it is perhaps unsurprising that its inventor was something of a cultural rebel himself - though not in the way you might think. And while the lava lamp might seem like a purely aesthetic object with no practical applications, today this psychedelic device performs a vital service that helps keep the internet safe and secure. So turn on, tune in, and drop out as we dive into the groovy history of the Lava Lamp.
