ResoNet visualises the resonant frequencies inherent in the natural environment, via the interaction of the public and surrounding elements detected by a LED net. By using Low-Fi techniques ResoNet creates a cascade of light triggered by the vibrations detected across the structure. ResoNet explores the boundaries between nature, art and technology; to create emergent physical & ephemeral conditions. The experiment was exhibited as part of the Fred Event in Jubilee Gardens, Kirkby Stephen, UK (28 Sep-14 Oct 2007). Lately, ResoNet was awarded 1st prize for the Gwangju Design Beinnale: Bright LED competition held by DesignBoom for experimental and innovative use of LED lighting in the field of design & architecture.

The Penetration of Light
William Hailiang Chen, winner of the 2002 Nicholas Boas Travel Award, spent a month in summer photographing light in Roman churches. A study of the transformative powers of light on the human soul, and the intimation of divinity found in its interaction with the colours, materials and forms of classical buildings, these photos suggest an experience of wordless thought. This scholarship, established in the memory of Nicholas Boas, is awarded annually to two AA students wishing to study Roman architecture and urbanism at British School at Rome.
