lighting – Bananaleow

For the final, I wish to do a smaller version, which only includes the environment for studying, and if possible, reading.

For this week, I’ve watched Touch Designer tutorials and this one taught me a lot:

Here’s some of the bunch of stuffs I made along with the tutorial that I think is helpful in my project:

I was using noise a lot to randomly generate effects.

Best results: noise bg + moving gradient + distortion on frame

another version which is not as great but can work out

In conclusion, I’ll continue working on this and refine it to look good.

Today’s consultation notes:

– brochure is useful in showcasing the work before people see it so it should be showcased during presentation / exhibition and can even be used as a brochure for selling my device if its a real product 😀

– like an app or something that can connect to the device, or link to heartrate, etc. However personally, I feel like I should have everything to be attached to the device directly to make it as simple as possible. I think an IR distance sensor (to detect restlessness / movement) and a gesture sensor will work well with the interface, together with IoT to detect time and temperature.

– studying colours and colour theory psychology and colour in mood lighting can be helpful

Experience “Poster”

Prototype 1:

My first prototype which did not work very well as I forgot to account for spacing at the side, resulting in me needing to manually down-size the wheel crudely.

Final

The “Poster” is made to be an abstract version of the actual work. Using wheels and pages of images, the poster is interactive and is made to be intuitive for users to understand how to actual work may feel and look like.
