A lighting fixture, with the volume of a sphere contained within the form of a sliced acrylic cube. The fixture pursues the effect

of light through the cut acrylic, through repetition and rhythm in the spacing of each acrylic layer. A cube tipped on its corner is the essential form. Projected light/images

are reflected within the fixture creating multiple layers of imaging. A microphone translates the max volume frequencies in

the space into light; the fixture now acts as an interpreter for the space to respond to its

user(s).
