Light in combination with materials and coding can greatly affect and communicate with a space through its qualities and behaviors. Light Leak is a light-based device that senses its surrounding space and contribute to it as a body-instrument. Light Leak is an aggregation of components used to direct or bounce light from the microcontroller/light source, which is an Adafruit Circuit Playground Express (CPX). With the Zund, a CNC knife cutter, as the primary machine, thin PETG components that are bended encase the light source and body, the arm.
The wearable object surrounds the arm and holds two components of the CPX: the playground itself and an additional proximity sensor. This light source, through coded interactions, serves to understand the movement of the hand with the tilting sensors. The proximity sensor is used to transform the proximity of the other arm into 8-bit sounds. With that, the unfolding of bodily interactions are transformed into sound and light for the user to engage better.
The project takes movement and interprets it as two different sensings: to see and hear. To do that, it adapts a parametric design approach of a surface that covers the bodily movement and an aggregation fabrication method to build the arm piece and configure it to bend on the nodes of the body.
