Move Me — The Mill

PROJECT:

Two neopixel lighting sculptures for The Mill’s art exhibit, “Move Me” during AICP 2017.

POSITION:

Creative Technologist. On this project I was the lead technologist and creative asked to build the lighting installations envisioned by the creative director, Kinda Akash. This involved researching power distribution, endless hours of soldering and a lot of work with neopixels strips — how to connect them, house them, power them and mold them.

(NOTE: This video covers all of the projects at the event. There are snippets of the lighting installations I built, images of me soldering, AND I also happened to work on the wearable tech as part of another project on display, the biometric VR experience, Strata.)

LIGHTING SCULPTURE ONE:

The Way Finder was meant to help direct the attendees through the many interactive art projects on display at the “Move Me” event.

 

 

LIGHTING SCULPTURE TWO:

The neopixel abstract signage with the title of the event was created to greet attendees as they stepped off the elevator.
