Forest of Lamps

When a person stands close to a lamp in the Forest of Lamps, the light shines brightly to emit an enveloping color. Starting from the first lamp, the light spreads to the two nearest lamps and gradually the same light color is emitted by other lamps, one after another. Each lamp shines brightly once, then eventually the light returns to the first lamp. The process occurs in response to the interaction between a person and a lamp, so if a different light suddenly emerges from another part of the room, it means another person is in the room, making visitors aware of the presence of others.
