Week 1 Line 'em up.

 While sitting in my room the other afternoon, I decided to relax instead of reading through my research. (This, of course, does not happen often.) I have always noticed and enjoyed the way the afternoon light shines through the blinds and hits the wall and painting across from my bed. On this particular day, the window was also open, and the mild breeze brushed through, creating movement in the blinds and therefore a twinkling and visual change on the wall. The warmth of the air and the light created an easy and soothing energy in me, and I knew it was the right decision to not be researching. 

Though I am not sure of the technical needs to create something like this on stage, I might gander that the use of gobos, with lines and streaks, would help create the texture I am looking for on the stage floor surface. This texture could grow up to cyc so it can be seen there as well. I see this texture beginning from the downstage right corner and growing wider and wider as it makes a diagonal to the upstage left corner and rises up half of the cyc on stage left. To help create the energy I felt, I might add shins from stage right and pipe ends on both sides of the stage to help the audience feel the sunlight presence, adding ambers and lavenders to add to the warmth and the relaxing energy. In contrast, for a second separate idea, I can see the same gobo scheme in use, but wanting an edgier feel instead of warmth, I might use stage right shins and blue saturate colors to create something more stark and ominous. And some fog would be great too for this second look to help represent how the lines in the photo look like many tiny points (reminiscent of pointillism).
