I made a ceiling lamp based on what a resting rowing shell would look like from under water.
I reviewed videos and photos to understand what this would actually look like. Then I [[3D modelled]] the belly of a rowing shell and the blades of some oars and [[3D printed]] them. I [[Laser cut]] (or rather engraved) the shapes of the waves around the shell and the oars out of a sheet of translucent acrylic. I glued the 3d printed parts on the bottom of the acrylic sheet.
Then I built the body of the lamp, and installed RGB LEDs against a randomly reflective background out of crushed up aluminum foil. I then programmed an [[Arduino]] to create the appearance of the change of colour and flickering under water in the LEDs.
