IESNYC: Liminal Luminosity

lighting competition


this Tuesday, our design class went to this IESNYC's lighting competition
we had to get up early and go to the city in the morning
we arrived the place at 8 o'clock (we usually don't wake up till 8:30 or later...)
anyway...it is an interesting experience
we get there and start to setting up our lighting fixtures, putting up the presentation boards
its pretty smooth process then we had expected (you always have to prepare for the worst scenario anyway...=w=)
after setting up we just went back to school, finish the afternoon class then go back again~

at night, the reception is like a high end party kind of stuff...
people are dringking and eating some snacky food (there's a crunchy bread tast real~~ly good)
it is interesting to see how different school and people approch the same topic given

the topic is Liminal Luminosity

"Construct a 3-dimensional study to show how light facilitates, defines, or bridges a point of transition."

liminal
(lim'i nel):

1. of or at the limen, or threshold
2. at a boundary or transitional point between two conditions

its fine if you don't get it....cause i don't get it either....XDDDD....Orz
anyway...im sure only few people will read the whole thing to this point...so...just go look at the picture...thats more interesting then my jumble mumble~

  3. some lights looks a lot nicer in photograph, some looks worse...

    and indeed...there are some other lights that looks a lot cooler than the grand prize one, but I think its more about the story and the idea of the light that match what the organization was looking for

    did u see the video for the light with sray? ([]Magic)
    That one is really cool and fun~XDD
