With this Makerspace we saw an opportunity to build off of our previous Makerspace program Aerial Antics. Aerial Antics was a program where guests made flying hovercrafts and tested them out in our wind tubes. We challenged guests to keep their hovercrafts flying within our wind tubes as long as possible.
This week we decided to take our challenge to the next level by adding LEDs and creating light paintings. We were inspired by some of the artbot and wind tube innovations we had seen at other museums. So we thought it would be cool to combine them by innovating artbots in the air!
Guests were invited to build, test, and iterate their flying objects at our inside air tube. Visitors then added LEDs to make their flying objects unique and iterated their designs. After plenty of fantastic failures and innovative redesigns, guests went outside The Tech Studio to make light paintings with their UFOs in the darkness of The Tech Atrium.
In The Tech Atrium guests placed their LED covered hovercrafts into our wind tube and let them fly. As visitors' UFOs were hovering, we took long-exposure photographs. These long-exposure photographs created beautiful and rich light paintings and revealed the hovercrafts' flight paths! Visitors were amazed by the light paintings their UFOs made, and so were we!
Many guests made alterations to their UFOs to change their craft's light painting. Some added extra propellers, tails, lights, and more.
Many guests also named their hovercrafts. Our personal favorite was Sparkly Sunshine! This past week of Makerspace made us feel like Sparkly Sunshine at 100,000 lumen All of the long exposure photographs from the previous Tuesday, Thursday, andSaturday of our UFOs Makerspace can be seen on our Facebook. If you would like to create your own light paintings at home, Glowdoodle is an awesome and free application that can help you get started.
DIY Halloween Greetings with glow in the dark effect. Made with "Glow Doodle"
Glowdoodle Glowdoodle workshops with young people at play & youth centres in Liverpool. Glowdoodle makes light drawing simple using a webcam the program saves the image frame by frame building up an image as you go. This makes it easier as what you are drawing appears on the screen while you are drawing. We used a variety of different lights to get different effects including; finger torches, battery fairy lights, light-up shoe laces and light filters to change the colour of torches. A great extension of this would be to make the light sources with the young people as part of the workshop or to save the images as you go to make animations. Glowdoodle was made by Eric Rosenbaum in collaboration with Jay Silver. Glowdoodle is free to download from the link below - you can also use it on the website. http://scripts.mit.edu/~eric_r/glowdoodle/ Eric Rosenbaum's website http://web.media.mit.edu/~ericr/ Jay Silver's Website http://web.media.mit.edu/~silver/
