Making light on the farm

What materials and forms could express the light, shade and passing time we experience on the farm?

Where do we start?
What will we change?

The principle we build on

Bring light, paper and energy together as a form of expression.

We study how the original works and the context behind it, then find questions to explore on our own farm.

Our adaptation plan

Using today’s tools.
Making it clear for the next person.

  1. Available materials and structures that can be adapted
  2. Instructions that make assembly and repair possible
  3. Working notes that compare the intended effect of light with the experience of it

These are planned changes. We will document how they work and the field results after testing.

Small steps
to get started.

For now, these are things you can try at home. We will share on-site dates and support once they are confirmed.

01

Sketch light from memory

Record a memorable scene of light or shade with a sketch or a few words.

Draw or describe it in whichever way suits you; no making experience is needed.

02

Sketch a path for light

Draw a folded or layered paper shape. Mark where light could pass through.

Start with a sketch; there is no need to buy materials.

03

Describe the light you need

Write down how bright you want the light to be, where it would be used and how long it would stay on. Component connections will be considered later.

Start by defining requirements; circuit tests require confirmed components and a responsible person.

03 / Preparation notes

What we need to check next.

Set out the creative intention and proposed materials, then define conditions for testing a small model.
