The result of my “Shattered Light” series is a collection of around 45 ‘animated photos’, edited with Photoshop and self-written software. I have rendered them as both GIFs and MP4s. The collection of social-media friendly 4k MP4s can be found at the following google drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/14sOPtbqMHpSaFOMHbqefhxRn5lb0bzvO?usp=sharing A more easily viewable collection of 4k GIFs…

Josue Contreras and Chris Bell Presentation Description We set out to create a light art project that would be an interactive experience for the individuals that entered the room. Our team researched light artists who specialized in creating unique interactive projects and were inspired to emulate an interactive installation of our own to fulfill the…
Nathan Dennler: Final Documentation
My work for this term revolved on applying lights to fashion to explore the concept of identity. This idea was sparked by my experiences as an undergraduate student as I discovered what I valued in life, what I want to do with the rest of my life, and how I personally fit into different social…
Final Documentation – Alyssa Konsko
I chose to present my images in class by using printed images displayed on wire folding boards. I had pictured printed in various sizes, and by presenting them in a non-traditional manner, I hoped to draw engagement from the class. I actually ended up using panels from a cube organizer from Bed Bath and Beyond…
Final Documentation
My final presentation went well, the near pitch black lighting really emphasized each of the light flashes in the sequence. I mentioned before that I would’ve liked a bit more time to flesh out the ending more and add 1 or 2 more scenes right at the end to avoid the long awkward pause before…
Polish and Present
After a long weekend of coding and wiring, I finally have a finished project. I had to simply the ending of the sequence in favor of polishing what I already have, resulting in a bit of empty time that should’ve been cut shorter, but I’m hoping it will just add to the dramatic finish. In…
Failure, Recalibration & Iteration
Scaling up my design from the original mock up proved to be one of the most difficult things in this project. Problem number 1 was that the cotton balls were not good at defusing points of light from a single LED. My initial mock up was lit by a string of low output LEDs I…

My inspiration for this light art project was to showcase the beauty of contrast and of opposites. I enjoy the allure of metal sculpturing, especially in nature pieces because of its uncommon presence in the natural world. Introducing light into this piece meant emphasizing the visualization of life coursing through a tree, in reference to…
Maquette
Moving forward with the illuminated clouds idea, I wanted to start testing ideas on how to diffuse the light given off by the lightning, as well as figure out how to create the silhouettes. My initial attempts made it clear that a cutout card-stock figure placed behind a wall of cotton balls would not be…
