Silent Lights is an urban light installation located near the Navy Yard in Brooklyn. Role: Technical consultant, interior light box designer and fabricator, electrical engineering, Arduino dev, electronics installation & testing The Challenge For the residents of northern Fort Greene, Brooklyn, the intersection of Park Avenue and Navy Street is a bleak and noisy place that is best avoided.

Proposal for Bronx Museum Part 2 site specific | (0)

The somewhat dense pattern visually flattened the architectural features (maybe if the weave had more negative space). Our last visit to the Bronx Museum revealed an important constraint - projection edges. Rectangular edges of a light source on the wall proved the its greatest disservice. Spandex Overview: Our first proposal is content that convinces the eye that the wall is not fully rigid. The wall itself maybe be solid but with visuals becomes ...
