One day after a Pumping Station: One meeting, Patrick and I arbitrarily set ourselves to making a light box. This is what ensued.
The design was completely ad hoc and the workmanship was sub-sub-standard, but it came together exactly as I pictured it. The biggest problem was that neither of us really knew how to make a light box. Most importantly we didn’t have poster board to use for the backing or lights to properly light the item. We just built the box and covered it with some fabric we found in the space, and we positioned the box to use ambient lighting as well as we could. If someone were to make one of these in more than 15 minutes, those would be the things to change. That and actually looking at real instructions from people who know what they’re doing.
Happy hacking!
