Lighting is the most imporant part of your habitat: it illuminates your work, might keep you from sleeping and of course, sets the mood. In this class, students will learn the basics of building well designed, natural and energy-efficient eco friendly lighting. Using bamboo, LEDs and other materials, students have the option of constructing and leaving with one of the instructors designs, or of creating their own original light sculpture to bring home and put on the night stand.

The instructor will guide students from conception through construction, including building simple electronic circuits. Emphasis will be put on craftsmanship and attention to detail. Students can feel confident they will leave with a real, functional work of art.

While some prior light woodworking experience is good, it is not necessary. Students should come to class with a 5v, low amperage power adapter (around 550 mA). These can be bought at Radio Shack, or found along Canal St. Most cell phone chargers work fine.
