project 1 process

I've been working on an Incan pyramid kinda thing that has a triangular plexiglass window attached to the top of it. I'm still not entirely sure what electrical stuff is going to be integrated into the piece, but my mind was so scattered between ideas, I just had to start something to create some mental boundaries. I am thinking that as viewers approach the object, an ultrasonic range detector will increase the speed of LED flashes illuminating the plexi window (which I will either glue cattail seeds to or paint with encaustic).
