Today in London...

Famous London shopping area Carnaby Street features a Christmas display featuring pioneering light and sound technology designed by James Glancy Design Ltd. This year its decorations feature oversized gold mistletoe chandeliers, each housing 22 colour-changing ‘berries’ that are co-ordinated to play to the iconic Christmas song by The Ronettes, ‘I saw Mommy Kissing Santa’.

In between the mistletoe chandeliers and throughout the rest of the 12 streets of Carnaby, 25 oversized holographic holly leaf chains with glowing red berries are suspended above the streets in zig-zag formations, creating a spectacular display throughout the day and night.

The sound and light performance takes place every hour throughout the day, and the decorations will be in place until January 3, 2012.
