Composing with light

I have been experimenting with the use of light as an element of composition. This is my first experiment using light levels to influence the composition. The tones are natural solar resonances that I have ‘sonified’ from data collected by the BiSON research team. Light Readings from a Light Dependant Resistor trigger the playback. I can influence the light levels (and therefore the composition) by moving my hands toward or away from the LDR. Different samples are triggered according to how much light is being detected by the LDR.
