• Since the blue LEDs are already embedded, take advantage of their internal glow by testing it in a completely dark room. This way, you can fully appreciate the calming and immersive ambiance the blue light creates.
• How to Experiment:
  • Adjust the positioning of the sculpture to see how the light spills out from different openings, creating unique patterns on the surrounding surfaces.
  • Experiment with angling the sculpture to project light onto nearby walls or the floor, transforming the surrounding space into part of the installation.

Enhancing Long Exposure Photography with Embedded LEDs

• Why Long Exposure? Even though the light source is inside, long exposure photography can capture the soft, glowing effect of the blue LEDs, emphasizing the internal structure and creating dreamy, ethereal light patterns.
• How to Capture It:
  • Set up your camera or phone on a stable surface or tripod in a dark room. Adjust the camera settings to a longer exposure time (e.g., 10-20 seconds) to let in more light and amplify the soft glow of the blue LEDs.
  • Try rotating the sculpture slightly between shots or gently moving the entire piece during a long exposure to create light trails, making it look like the light is "breathing" or pulsating.
  • Capture the effect from different angles to see how light escapes through the openings and interacts with the environment. Exploring Blue Light & Mood

• Mood Concept: Since the blue LEDs are already giving off a calming, relaxing glow, consider how the internal light can interact with different textures or materials within the structure.
• Ideas to Experiment With:
  • Diffusion: Try placing translucent materials like tracing paper or fabric inside the structure to soften the light further, giving it a diffused, ambient effect.
  • Reflection: Add small reflective elements (like aluminum foil or metallic paper) inside the cardboard structure to bounce the blue light around and create more dynamic internal reflections.
