I immediately knew I wanted to do something with the ocean and how water absorbs light, but what form that would take was uncertain. For simplicity’s sake, this would all be in the 3D software Blender, because I don’t think making a physical version of this would be very feasible for me. I started with…

I’m stuck between two ideas… Volumetric Display The first is a more light-art themes project to created a 3D volumetric display. There are very few on the internet and they are usually very expensive, complicated builds. I’d love to create a simpler, more affordable build that many others could also make. My main inspirations for…

For my project, I am hoping to expand my photographic ability by experimenting with long exposure photography. I hope to play around with many different subjects and styles including but not limited to nature and water, the night time sky, the city and moving vehicles, and light painting. I have been a photographer both recreationally…

Inspiration When the class began and I was introduced to the many forms of Light Art, I was drawn to stained glass more so than the other mediums. Not necessarily making stained glass, but the design of it and photographing it. Then when I researched John Hardman Powell for my Light Artist presentation, the photography…

Inspiration       Coming into this class, I was already pretty interested in projections. In my last few art classes, kinetic art and computer art, I was introduced to magic lanterns and light as an art form – a lot of which explored projections. These projections of light can introduce movement into art, creating…

Stained Glass Lantern I have always been interested in working with stained glass as I love the visual effects of it. I was thinking of having four different stained glass pieces held together by a wooden structure. Each stained glass piece would be a different flower design. My idea is to have each of the…

I thought the concept of light color blending was interesting because it’s so different from color blending with paint, the more commonly thought of medium. I am also very interested in stained glass, which has an aspect of color blending when the light goes through to project colors. I learned there are two different types…

Paul Friedlander is an interesting light artist since all his art stems from a love of kinetic art. Friedlander graduated from college with a degree in physics, before learning his love of art and getting a second degree in fine art. He has spent his whole life investigating different types of technology to make light…

Tools and Technique: Unfortunately, Erksine does not provide much information about the actual fabrication of the glass and prisms used in his art. However has provided many diagrams, photos, and descriptions about the technology behind his art and art making progress. For each of his works, he first creates a scale model of the space…

The artist I chose to present on was Philipp Frank, a light artist from Munich, Germany. He creates art by projecting moving shapes, patterns, and other visuals onto nature. He’s projected on rocks, water, trees, mushrooms, and many other parts of nature, both alive and inanimate. He uses projection mapping, 3D modelling and scanning, animation,…

The Joshua Light show was a artist group who provided live light imagery for rock bands. The group was created by Joshua White who studied electrical engineering, theatrical lighting and magic lantern techniques at Carnegie Tech as well as film making at the University of Southern California. The group performed at the Fillmore east, a…

Background:Carnovsky is a duo of Francesco Rugi and Silvia Quintanilla. They are Milan-based and started collaborating in 2007. Their first RGB installation was shown during Milan Design Week 2010. Tools & TechniquesThey’re known for their RGB pictures that reveal different things underneath when a color filter or lighting is used. They do prints and objects,…
