So, I used my materials to make prototype of my instalation idea. I used cement and sixty small lights. To succeed this I made a rectangle plate of cement.

When I did that I actually thought of lots of things that you could do with that kind of lighting like decorating a minimal house with this unusual lamp or even have a smart lighting in a bar , by your drink. I took lots of photographs because it was fascinating to play with the lighting effect on the camera. Then I edited some in Photoshop to show how it would actually look in the real instalation, I did patterns and tried to make letters. Of course in a real one the led light would be smaller. The real instalation would be big enough to be in a city’s center. With much more lights and special ones to weather conditions. The interactive user would achieve showing his message by sending a text to a particular number, The best mediun I would use to do that is by Arduino or Processing.

Hand Made High Tech Through all my research and

initial experimentation I came up to an idea for an instalation.

Instalations of course are always more interesting when they

are big, actually huge, and far more interesting when they

are interactive. So, I used my materials to make prototype of

my instalation idea. I used cement and sixty small lights.

To succeed this I made a rectangle plate of cement. I opened little holes with stra

before it get dry. After it dried I passed through sixty smalll lights and stuck them with plasticine. I turned them on and the

result was fascinating. When I did that I actually thought of lots of things that you could do with that kind of lighting like decorating a minimal house with

this unusual lamp or even have a smart lighting in a bar , by your drink.

I took lots of photographs because it was fascinating

to play with the lighting effect on the camera. Then I edited some in Photoshop to show

how it would actually look in the real instalation, I did patterns and tried to make letters. Of course in a real one the led light would be

smaller.

The real instalation would be big enough to be in a city’s center. With much more lights and special ones to weather conditions. The interactive user would achieve showing his message by sending a text to a particular number, The best mediun I would use to do that is by Arduino or Processing.
