Linelight

Developed by the innovative Tokyo-based company Material House, Linelight maximizes the illumination potential of artificial lighting by channeling the illumination of a single light source along a line. Linelight is comprised by a highly-reflective mirror housing fronted by an acrylic lens designed for even dispersion, which is contained within an aluminum frame.
Linelight accepts lamps from 35 to 150 Watts in power, and will carry bright light 30 feet using only a single lamp. Not only are fewer fixtures required compared with conventional point-source installations, but maintenance is also simplified, as only a single fixture must be changed.

unfortunately the website only exists in Japanese. I would love more information on this product; however no one in our office speaks Japanese...
See if this (http://babelfish.altavista.com/) website can translate.
What is the website address?
http://www.materialhouse.co.jp/
I want to poke the "light bulb" end up through my roof, and have these vertically in the corners of every room and on every doorframe, with the sun instead of a light bulb on the other end.
And/or run them with LEDs, not incandescent lights. Hoping someone comes along with more info.
Hey, they've done it already!
