IAP 2012 Activity


Working with Light: A Hands-on Workshop
Seth Riskin, MIT Museum Studio
Tue Jan 17, Thu Jan 19, Tue Jan 24, Thu Jan 26, 01-04:00pm, N52-214

Enrollment limited: advance sign up required (see contact below)
Signup by: 13-Jan-2012
Limited to 10 participants.
Participants requested to attend all sessions (non-series)

This workshop is about learning how to create with light. It's not a course in lighting or physics theory, but an opportunity for guided, hands-on and eyes-on exploration of light to gain direct experience of how it behaves and how to manipulate it for shaping perception in art, architecture and other fields of application.

A range of basic tools and materials will be explored, from light sources including LEDs and laser diodes, to optics and optical materials. Structured toward the completion of individual, or group projects (e. g., light sculpture, environment, installation, or performance), the workshop will culminate in a display at the MIT Museum.
