Researching for this project was so much fun. There was so many interesting things to see and to learn about. Instead of looking at things like 3D printed objects I quite quickly I focused in on lower-tech things, such as how new digital technologies can be used to create interesting lighting.
Almost all of this research was focused around the members of OKAY Studio.

Marmoreus Light: Using low-tech optical principles to create lighting effects that are both subtle and dramatic. The patterns change with a turn of a tab.
Obscura View: Created for the "Living Space" exhibition during Milan Furniture Fair 2005. Fifty lenses are embedded into a rotating screen, they project inverted images of the environment they're facing onto an interior acrylic surface. Altogether it creates a kaleidoscopic effect.

La Estirada: A series of experiments which try to capture light travelling through space.
