1. PROTOTYPES
a. LED Prototype (it works!)
b. Plush Prototype*
*rough prototype, not to scale or accurate color
2. Plush Prototype Pattern
3. Night Light Concept (+ target user)
A few years ago, I saw the movie First Reformed. I no longer remember the plot, but what I do recall is a scene in which two characters are sitting on a couch next to a floor lamp shaped like an eye. I found that it was designed by Nicola L., a French artist known for her anthropomorphic sculptures that fused bodies with domestic objects.
I plan to make a night light inspired by her ocular lamp. The target audience is anyone who wants to add a touch of anthropomorphic surrealism to their space.
4. Parts/Materials
1. Single Battery Pack
2. 3 AAA Batteries
3. 4 diffused white 10mm through-hole LEDs
4. 4 Resistors
5. Heat Shrink Tubing
6. Polyfill
7. Fabric (ideally mixed textures, satin + cotton + felt)
– Orange
– White
– Dark Blue
– White Blue
(Update: going to use scrap fabric from FabScrap, which gives me less choice about what fabric I get, but is more sustainable and the unknown adds a fun element to this project).
5. Brainstorm Sketches (3)
Update: Going with Sketch #1
6. Circuit Diagram
Update: 4 LEDs, in radial formation
