In early December 2007, the D block of Mikontalo, while undergoing the reconstruction, was the scene of the Mikontalolights project.

The object of Mikontalolights project was to create the world's physically largest colored graphics platform by using the windows of Mikontalo's D block as light pixels.

The platform was used for playing Tetris and other games and present demos created by the students of Tampere University of Technology.

Mikontalolights was a part of the 42nd jubilee year of the Student Union of Tampere University of Technology.
