The Nature of Light is an ideated pop-up exhibition designed to illuminate the concept of light and optical phenomena. Through colouring a set of postcards (that also piece together to form a flipbook animation of the visible light spectrum), visitors have a chance to learn all about sun dogs, circumzenithal arcs, tangent arcs, and 22° halos. All images composed in Illustrator. 24"x36" poster & double-sided riso printed postcards.

What would light sound like if it were sound, and what would sound look like if it were light? Although different in many ways, light and sound both result from the interactions of particles and waves. Pre-recorded video of sunlight upon the Providence River is scanned by an algorithm coded in Max/Jitter, which then assigns synthesized sound to a position in ambisonic space. The azimuth and elevation of the sound is determined by factors such as brightness and position of light within the video frame. The piece is interactive through the use of a Korg MIDI controller by which qualities of the synthesized sound can be adjusted, making every performance unique.
First performed and recorded with the 25.4 loudspeaker array in RISD’s Studio for Research in Sound and Technology. Best listened with headphones in a quiet space.
