yay lights

What i did: I put together plexiglass cubes to get a feel for whether i liked that project solution. I put double layered color photographs in one with white light on the inside. for the other cube i put red light inside and held a black and white photo transfer up to it. I got feedback on both that was very helpful.






what i discovered: that i dont want to make photo cubes! i decided i'd prefer the viewer to be able to see all the images in a series at one time. i also discovered that the glare problem i was complaining about with the texture of the gel is invisible when the print is illuminated! which is awesome for my purposes.

what's next: stephanie and i discussed a lightbox i could make in order to test how different types/colors of light some through photos and transfers. i think this is important for my decision making process so that's what im working on.

here's that dock lamp with blue bulbs in it that i never posted before
