Luzes relacionais
[posted by Benz Roos]

Luzes relacionais by Ernesto Klar
“Luzes relacionais” (Relational Lights) is an interactive audio-visual installation that explores our relationship with the expressional-organic character of space. The installation uses light, sound, haze, and a custom-software system to create a morphing, three-dimensional light-space in which spectators actively participate, manipulating it with their presence and movements”(from Ernesto klar’s site) source: creative applications

6:30 AM colours of the sky
[posted by Benz Roos]
Not so sure about this 6:30AM photo series of Robert Weingarten, because it is a bit kitchy. However I really do like the change of light and the colours in the sky, espacially above the sea. The series illustrates thedifferent effect light can have in different wheater circumstances and position of the erth in certain seasons.
Here is the explanation from his website;”After making test pictures from various points around his ocean view home in Malibu, he decided to turn his normal working procedure upside down and inside out by creating a set of strict rules of engagement with the motif. The subject would be sky, sea, and city observed over the course of one year, beginning on January 1 and ending on December 31, 2003, and would be advanced every day he was at home. A number of key artistic decisions governed the outcome of the project. Weingarten established a single viewpoint, looking southeast over Santa Monica Bay, from which every photograph in the series would be made with the camera in exactly the same position.
Each exposure would be made at precisely the same time of day – 6:30 am – measured by one quartz clock. All exposures would be made with the lens focused on infinity and at the same aperture of f/22. Just two variables were allowed into this disciplined scheme: the shutter speed of the lens, which would be adjusted faster or slower depending on the quantity and quality of light available at 6:30 a.m. each day; and, the most variable element of all, changes in the scene that were introduced by the forces of nature.-Weston Naef, Curator of Photographs, The J. Paul Getty Museum” -

Candle light vs cold cathode

“Light from a candle is a continuously variable field that emanates from a point outward. We enclosed a candle in a box covered with sensors. The sensors sample the light from the candle and are connected to corresponding cold-cathode light tubes in the space behind the box. At any given moment, a three dimensional cross section of the light from the candle is detected by the sensors and then amplified to fill the space of the room. This allows visitors to walk inside the field of the candle and experience it as a space” summery by the artist Nicholas Hanna. source: creative applications
