Light machine



Light Machine 2007
Welded steel, Lights, and gear system


The light machine utilized negative space to cast spinning forms of light along the interior of the room. Negative space allows for provocative illuminated shapes to vent outwards and stimulate the viewer. The viewer powered hand-crank allows them to become a part of the piece. The hand-crank powers an internal gear system which spins a column of truncated steel cylinders. Underneath the cylinders is a system of xenon lights which project the spinning forms onto any surround surface.
