For my last creative response, I worked in my preferred medium. I’m a light designer for a bunch of shows and dance groups on campus, and I made a light plot for the Loeb Ex based on a reaction to the song that Oludamini sent me (from this album: http://www.amazon.com/IbnArab%C3%AD-El-Int%C3%A9rprete-Los-Deseos/dp/B00617BIIY, we listened to part of it in section). It’s really difficult for me to explain all of what the plot means, but I’ll try.
The plot allows for a blend of up to three colors of top light, which can give the floor a glowing, perhaps pulsing quality. With clever writing of effects, I could get the pulsing floor to speed up as the breathing in the song hastens. There are also two systems of front light, one warm and one cool, that light the whole floor area upstage. They can change the emotional intensity of the scene as it grows.
I’ve used 31 lighting units in this plot, including 12 Fresnels, 18 6×9 units, and one 6×12.
