Circuits Experiment Artist statement Tyler Creighton
Almost every year since I was 4 I have been dancing. From jazz, to tapp, to ballet , hip-hop,african,moden, lyrical contemporary, and even gymnastics.It began to become to difficult to fit dance in my agenda now that I I am in high school but some how I have found a way. I learned that not every genre is the same but with the techniques you will be able to master all of them very simply.Incorporating my everyday life into projects has always been fun and enjoyable simply because i am able to express myself through something so little.I chose to use a ballerina as my base(foundation). Ballet has slowly became my favorite genre. It works you the hardest and is the most strict genre out of the many I have done. When I saw my ballerina I knew it was so ! I thought about how when you think about a ballerina you think about her shoes and tutu. So I decided to make those glow. I thought about it as even when its dark a ballerina can still glow.
I started my process by sketching my circuit diagram on paper and marking the ballerina where I wanted to add my circuits and my bulbs.My circuit diagram ended up being three bulbs in a series. After that I made tiny holes and connected all of my wires with each other. The hardest parts of this whole process were finding the right calculations and finding a switch that worked with my circuit. After building this circuit and a lot of hard work the viewers will be able to just hit the switch and Tadaaa there ya go tinker bell ;)
