Experimenting

Experimenting with the idea of photochromic paints:
- how imagery appears with 'black' lights
- where to place it 


When researching photochromic/thermochromic paints, I immediately thought of this:
Glow worm caves in New Zealand or indoor star gazing.
So now I have to figure out how to use the paints:
- what colours to use
- how to eg handmade painting or printed
- figure out how "blacks" can appear whilst in normal light can be invisible
- when presenting: use a large page or "peel off" 
- when presenting: large black light or torches for interactive
- interested in thermochromic paint - added interactive elements however it changes the way "energy usage" develops or reveals the imagery.

Alicia Ingruber designed these posters about the Stitchbird in New Zealand. Its the kind of graphics works I like to do and appreciate the style. 
Now I have to figure out the actual design and decide how parts of it will glow.
