~ Ocean Soundwave lightbox~
- Materials: walnut basswood hexagon box found at Blick + black paper/papertape
- 40/40 = Walnut & Paper
- (in retrospect was thinking maybe it was solid walnut? but with it from Blick? Maybe it’s actually plywood / could redo with ordering a nicer wood?)
- Fastener of choice: Papertape (to help not damage the paper surface/ flexibility to change out front image in future)
- will brainstorm more permanent fastener options
- light source = LED string lights
- drilled a hole for LED lights
- ocean surf sound wave from Freesound.com, but conceptually would maybe work better with a wave of summer environmental sounds? or somehow create a more direct correlation to lightbox materials and soundwave
- initial inspiration was a wide range of paper lantern & light box finds
- used a nail to poke dots through black paper on front of light box like how I used to as a kid with aluminum foil to make candle holders / little constellation lanterns
- enjoy that it looks almost like illuminated embroidery when the overhead lights are off / lightbox is on
