and large (if anyone knows of any, though, let me know) but I could make one with a 555 timer circuit and use that instead. I found a circuit design for one, shown below. I have a bit of experience soldering and putting together circuits, but this is a bit intimidating and could definitely pose some unexpected challenges. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/image-4.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"676\" height=\"838\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/image-4.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-652\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/image-4.png 676w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/image-4-645x800.png 645w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/image-4-242x300.png 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 676px) 100vw, 676px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I can order the protoboard and I have some capacitors, resistors, and transistors, I&#8217;d just need to get a few white LEDs and the 100k potentiometer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other major component of my project not in the maquette is a water pump.

Essentially every element is something I am very new to, but it is also really cool to be learning about all of it and getting to figure it out. I originally thought the wire sculpture portion of this would be the most involved and time consuming part, but now with the strobe circuit and possible pump issues, the wire sculpture has more become a side aspect in the creation process. On that same note, if anyone has any tips or knowledge about the water dripping and strobe light, let me know! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I expect that my original plan and my final product will have some major differences. I expect to have to rework a lot of my ideas, but I think my rough schedule gives enough time in between working on each element that the finished product will still be something cool that I am proud of. The dates weren&#8217;t chosen specifically, it was more to visually block out how much time I have. In the week of the 27th I have mentally added &#8220;rethink everything about everything.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-690\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.joshuarosenstock.com\/teaching\/lightart-a21\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/18\/2021\/09\/IMG_7192-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I used some steel wire to make a makeshift person, and hot glued some pieces to keep him stable.
