Recipe:

At the end of task two, I have two questions that I would like to explore in the next task. One of is that how to use lighting to draw audiences attention.  For the next task, I choose the light to be my major topic to notice the effects in our life.

Ingredients:

A camera

methods:

step1:  walking from the state library to Flinders station at night(after 9 o’clock)

step2: photographed the light that I often see but ignore.

step3: Make a questionnaire  to look at the reaction when people see the photo

 

Reflection:

After the first experiment, I’ve noticed too many sense that I ignored in the daily life.  At first, I just thought the light is simple, which means luminous objects at night, but I was wrong when I capture these photos by camera.  The camera could capture these moments better than human eyes, set the camera record the colorful world. In addition, the light is not the literal meaning to give a place bright. Nature presents us with a yellow roll of light and shadow. The sun’s rays, the lightning in the air, the rainbow after the rain. Artificial lighting is learning from nature to imitate.

I’ve made an investigation about the experiment.

Q1: What do you notice in these photos?

Q2: What do you think it?

Q3: Did you notice the light before?

I sent this questionaire to three people and got their responses. They all noticed the same things-lighting in these photos, but they all didn’t notice it before. They think the pictures are beautiful even they do not believe it took in Melbourne.  One guy asked me where I took the picture which is a glass under the chair. It is just picked in front of the Commonwealth bank.  He never sees that before.

After this experiment, I would like to explore how to make a video to draw their attention, to see how the light change, to notice more light effects around us.
