Light Observation: The wifi router
The wi-fi router on my ceiling sometimes changes colors at night, and as sensible as I like to consider myself, that little change from blue to green on that light panel, no larger than a floss-box always creeps me out.
Its standard color is blue: cool, calm blue. It reminds me of a baby’s nightlight. It hits my Whitney Houston poster in such a way that Whitney’s skin looks heavenly, beautiful. The seafoam green light comes on occasionally if there is a problem with the wi-fi. It makes her look extraterrestrial and strange, and her teeth look grimy. The color is reminiscent of some secret corridor in an X-Men movie that no doubt leads to an illegal testing room.
