So...
This was meant to be a lighting project. The assignment was to utilize light in a new and innovative way. I did so through the interplay of light and sound.
The aesthetics were supposed to be "bitchin". That means if this was made into a real product, it probably wouldn't look as crazy as my design, but perhaps a more toned down version.
How it works- Photoresistors for pitch and volume create all the magic. When you create shadow, the sound mimics the movement (oscillations). The more light there is, the higher the pitch and vice versa. The light sensor is super sensitive. If you dim the light of the room, as seen in the 2nd video, the pitch lowers as well. The momentary mute simulates the "Scratching" of DJs.
