In the below three groups, create a 2-minute composition using the assigned DMX fixture(s) and the Arduino DMX Shield. Explore the full range of possibilities of your assigned fixture(s) and consider including physical objects to enhance the composition. Keep in mind the concept of composing musically over time in light and space (and motion) and make considered choices in terms of colors.
One composition per group is preferred, but two will be allowed if the logistics of getting everyone organized get too complicated.
| GROUP | LIGHT | MEMBERS |
| Group 1 | 3 x PAR Lights | Nadine, Charlotte, Ricci, Melanie, Ashley, Lexie |
| Group 2 | Moving Head Spot Light | Snow, Angy, Raphael, Zora, Freddie |
| Group 3 | 6 RGB Laser Bar | Wes, Santiago, Xiao, Ninj, Ting |
Due: March 6 (in-class critique, fog will be provided)
Note: Assignments in this course (different from Projects) are meant as a quick way to explore ideas with the materials and technologies introduced that week. While thorough experimentation is highly encouraged, you are not expected to deliver a completely polished piece for these assignments. The goal is to explore the materials and make discoveries, while learning the technologies.
