158Z was a piece of exploration and discovery on all parts. C, the choreographer , wanted to focus on the idea of research in our own art forms and the collaboration. She spent the process discovering the interaction of dance and live music performance. We then worked together to explore the connections and interaction between dance and lighting design. With this prompt, I spent my tech time apply the idea of color fringing to movement.
Color fringing stems from the understanding that white light is composed of RGB. Therefore, if we use three similar individual light fixtures, each producing 100% of red, green, or blue and pointed at the same space, in theory a form of white light is produced. However, since the light travels from different angles, it results in the color “breaking”. The photos below include photographs of the actual piece as well as photos from my time experimenting with color fringing.
