Idea | Sun, Toggle
Since this is based on more the art form (and also if it's creatable through Grasshopper!), I've kept the idea to the most basic function/purpose - Circular panels open and close to allow ambient light into the room.

The panels open sequentially from left to right.

Each 'cross/lines' operate in the same way as the kinetic art mentioned in the presentation board.

It is linked to a computing system and a light sensor which activates/deactivates the mechanism.

Main Angle
Having established a basic function/purpose for the art piece (to allow ambient light into the room), I was able to focus largely on how expressive and abstract this concept can be!

What this establishes
- Maintains the conditions of Project 1 (no disruption to space, airflow and a sense of security is not compromised). The art piece only opens and closes to allow light in. There is a large solid piece of protective glass behind it.

- Easily responds to its environment (detects sunlight, open | no sunlight, closes)

- Concept that's possible to develop realistically (hopefully)

:)
